The producer behind ‘The Dark Knight’ has listed his more than 33-acre estate in Thousand Oaks for a whopping $85million.
Thomas Tull, the founder and former chief executive of Legendary Entertainment, and wife, Alba, first began building the North Ranch, California, compound seven years ago.
According to listing agent Jorden Cohe of RE/MAX Olson & Associates, Tull purchased three pieces of a cul-de-sac in separate transaction.
He would then privatize the street before adding a fourth section for the construction and addition of a boutique organic working farm, a ranch house and a glass greenhouse.
In total, there are seven structures and a lake with fish stocked in.

‘Throughout Beverly Hills and Bel-Air, you see these estates, but they don’t have land to them.
‘That’s a very unique point with this property, because you do have a true estate, and you also have the accessory structures.’

According to Biglin, the cascading pools and natural stone were to evoke the Giverny gardens that impressionist painted, Claude Monet, was known for.
Water and food are all handled on the property: the compound consist of two private municipal-quality wells and the organic farm includes 18 in-ground farm beds and approximately 150 fruit trees. There is even a stone millhouse with a water wheel situated on a lake.
