Tyler Perry’s Former Chattahoochee Hills Home Sells for $2.45 million

A luxurious Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia, mansion formerly owned by Tyler Perry until 2018 has been resold for $2.45 million. Originally listed for $3.9 million, this sprawling 17,889-square-foot estate is located just outside of Atlanta.

If it looks familiar that’s because Perry used this property in “Diary of a Mad Black Woman”, specifically the scene where Charles drags Helen through the front door and tosses her out as a U-Haul waits in the driveway. 

Featuring 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, the mansion offers ample space for luxury living while embracing the serene beauty of its natural surroundings.

Take a Tour of The Home

The estate itself is a stunning example of Southern elegance, surrounded by expansive lawns and beautifully landscaped gardens.

However, agent Hubert Tate shares what makes this listing truly unique in his Instagram post. For the right offer, Steve Harvey is throwing in his vintage 1973 Rolls Royce and a 1975 Ferrari, making this a full lifestyle package.

11Alive ran a segment highlighting the home’s cinematic legacy during Tyler Perry’s 15-year ownership, showcasing its role in his film projects. The piece also detailed how the estate transitioned from Perry to its current owner, Steve Harvey.

Final Thoughts

Tyler’s former mansion in Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia, is a luxury estate with deep cinema history as it also served as the filming locations for “Games People Play”, “The Game Changer”, “Honk for Jesus”, and “Secret Life of Amy Bensen”.
