Brendan Fraser House Bedford NY (Current)
Following his exit from Hollywood, Brendan Fraser retreated to the quiet town of Bedford, NY. While Fraser has done a fantastic job of keeping his longtime home a bit of a secret, VR was able to find at least one of the properties connected to the star in NY.
This super secluded estate was purchased under one of Fraser’s LLC’s back in March 2012 for $2.3 million – a bargain considering it was originally listed for $2.595 million.
Built in 2003, the home boasts 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms as well as 4,800 square feet of living space.
Other features include a 2-car garage, swimming pool with a pool house, and a spacious 5.2 acres of lush land. The star reportedly has a horse barn nearby where he keeps his beloved horse, named Pecas, that he adopted while filming Texas Rising (2018).
Brendan Fraser House Beverly Hills (Former)
Long before his move to Bedford, NY, Brendan Fraser lived in this gorgeous midcentury-modern estate in Beverly Hills, California!
The exact purchase date and price he paid for the 5,000 square foot home is unknown. According to Dirt, however, Fraser went on to sell the home in 2007 for $2.995 million.
The double height living room features a wall of glass with panoramic views of the surrounding canyons and ocean beyond.
Glass is actually a big theme here, since there are multiple areas of the home that feature floor-to-ceiling glass with incredible views.
Just off the family room, you’ll find a spacious terrace with a large al fresco dining area and lounge space.
For indoor dining occasions, however, the galley kitchen features a cozy eat-in breakfast nook as well!
Upstairs, you’ll find the estate’s massive master suite with a fireplace, gorgeous wood floors, built-ins, and more floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the landscape.
While there isn’t much actual yard to speak of here, the home does boast a beautiful swimming pool with a waterfall and spa!
Some other features, not pictured above, include a dark room for photography and formal dining room.

Why Did Brendan Fraser Stop Acting?
Brendan didn’t really leave acting by choice – there are several reasons that led to him stepping away from Hollywood – one of which being the physical. Fraser often did his own stunts in films which put a lot of stress on his body. As a result, Brendan needed not only spinal surgery, but also a partial knee replacement.
The second reason came down to him feeling blacklisted by Hollywood after he went public in 2018 about his experience with sexual abuse in the industry. The actor said that he was sexually abused by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s ex-president, Philip Berk, in 2003.
The incident caused Brendan to fall into a deep depression and become reclusive, distancing himself from the business as a means to cope.
Since his return to the big screen, fans have rallied around Fraser offering their love and support to the longtime actor. In truth, everyone (this writer included) that grew up with Brendan on the TV are thrilled to see him make his big comeback and look forward to what the future holds for this talented guy!

Brendan Fraser Kids
Brendan Fraser has three sons with ex-wife, Afton Smith – Griffin Fraser (age 20), Holden Fraser (18), and Leland Fraser (16).
Brendan Fraser son, Griffin, is not often seen in public. This is likely due to the fact that he is on the Autism spectrum. For anyone unfamiliar with the condition, those living with Autism often find crowds or loud noises overwhelming and sensory overload can lead to serious distress.
Leland Fraser is a model and musician that honestly looks more and more like his father every day. Seriously, if you were around in the Airheads days for Brendan – you know what i’m talking about!
As for Holden, he too was blessed with his father’s good looks and appears to be a model himself!
Brendan Fraser Daughter
While some sites have mentioned Brendan Fraser has a daughter, this is actually false (at least from what is known publicly). Brendan Fraser has three sons, but no daughters!
