The Beverly Hills Home of Hasbro’s Late CEO Hits the Market for $27 Million
A little more than three years after he died from cancer at age 58, the Beverly Hills home of longtime Hasbro chairman and CEO Brian Goldner has popped up for sale, asking $27 million. The listing is held by Antonio Bruno of Sotheby’s International Realty-Beverly Hills Brokerage and Tomer Fridman of Christie’s International Real Estate.
Records show Goldner—best known as a visionary who transformed the Rhode Island-based maker of toys and games into an entertainment company with its own TV and movie studio during his lengthy 16-year tenure—and his wife Barbara paid around $18 million for the 1980s residence in 2020, shortly before he passed away in October 2021. Subsequently reimagined and renovated by noted Obama White House designer Michael S. Smith, the traditional-style home features five bedrooms and eight baths in almost 7,500 square feet of sumptuous living space spanning two levels.

Fully walled and gated and fronted by a manicured lawn, the estate is spread across a nearly half-acre parcel of land in the sought-after Flats neighborhood. A sage-hued front door leads into the mansard-roofed white brick and stucco structure, which is introduced by a double-height entry foyer sporting a curving iron-railed staircase topped by a sky-lit ceiling.
Other highlights include a living room warmed by a veined-marble fireplace and a gourmet kitchen, which is outfitted with a central island, a high-end Caliber range, and an accompanying breakfast nook. There’s also a glamorous formal dining room lined with silver and white scenic wallpaper, plus a wood-paneled office and a massive primary suite that comes with a fireplace, a separate office, and dual baths.

Outdoors, the hedge-lined backyard is showcased by a pool with a spa and Baja shelf, as well as a built-in barbecue nestled alongside a pergola-shaded lounge area with a fireplace. Also on the premises is a guesthouse/cabana that’s currently being used as a gym, plus an attached two-car garage.
As first reported by Mansion Gobal, the Goldner family is moving out of California. A clinical social worker, Barbara Goldner also owns property in Rhode Island.
