An Encino home where Elisabeth Shue’s character Ali lived in “The Karate Kid” is back on the market for $4.99 million.
Located at 4072 Alonzo Ave., the now-gated residence served as a symbol of the class divide between Ralph Macchio’s character, Daniel, and Ali in the original 1984 film. The cult hit also famously starred Noriyuki “Pat” Morita.
Today, the five-bedroom, 5.5-bath dwelling is barely recognizable from what it looked like in the film.
The home first hit the market for $5.85 million last September before dropping in price to $5.48 million come November.
Built in 1974, the dwelling’s pillars have been removed to create a sleek, more modern facade.
Inside, the residence has been reimagined with an open layout, neutral decor and upgraded interiors — maximizing a more modern indoor/outdoor lifestyle.
Design details include beamed ceilings, fireplaces, wide-plank wood floors, recessed lights, multiple fireplaces — and stunning hillside views.
The home opens to a foyer with high ceilings and a curved staircase.
Entertaining spaces are framed by large windows with views of green lawns and hills.
A gourmet kitchen features custom cabinets and a large island, and opens to living and dining areas.
Upstairs, there’s a large recreation room with vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams. It can function as a lounge, a game room or a family room.
A primary bedroom suite has a fireplace, a spa-like bath and a walk-in closet.
The backyard also features a pool, a spa, and multiple lounge and dining areas — with a summer kitchen and barbeque, plus lush landscaping and a three-car garage.
The listing brokers are George Ouzounian and Gina Michelle, of the Agency.
