Trulia takes us inside Jeremy Renner's Hollywood home [1].
When he's not defending his country in The Hurt Locker or robbing Fenway Park in The Town, Jeremy Renner loves to flip houses. With his friend/business partner Kristoffer Winters, the actor has flipped everything from a Nichols Canyon home in 2002 to a Hollywood [2] residence resold for almost $1 million profit. Seeing as Jeremy recently split from his wife of half a minute [3], he probably has lots of extra time on his hands to let his DIY [4] spirit fly.

Case in point: Team Renner is hard at work on this 6,000-square-foot house in Hollywood that once belonged to legendary filmmaker Preston Sturges. They bought the home back in 2009 for $1.35 million, but just put it on the market for $4.79 million.
The roomy home nestled at the foothills of Runyon Canyon is super-private, with a lush front yard featuring a reflecting fountain and a covered front porch. The first floor of the home even has a "gentleman's room," the rumored site of Charlie Chaplin's first wedding. (Do you think it was a silent wedding?)
The upstairs master suite has a fireplace and French doors that lead up to a rooftop terrace offering beautiful views of Los Angeles [7] — but if you don't call dibs on the master, you can lie back in one of the three guest suites, each of which comes with a private patio.
Renner has famously claimed that once upon a time, he made more money flipping houses than acting [8]. He made big bank on this art deco-style Holmby Hills spread [9], which went for $24 million back in 2013.
With his Avengers sequel one of the most anticipated films of the summer, we're guessing he's not hurting for cash.
