Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams have purchased a legendary home in the Hollywood Hills that is considered by many to be a modern architectural masterpiece. The $2.3 million home was once owned by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and has been dubbed the Treehouse. It has sweeping views and celebrity neighbors including Kirsten Dunst and Matthew McConaughey.

The couple, who have a nine-month-old daughter, Matilda, currently live in a Brooklyn, New York, town house and recently sold their beach front home in Sydney, Australia, because the paparazzi could see into the front of the glass structure. The pair won’t have that problem at their new home, according to Coldwell Banker real estate broker Valerie Fitzgerald, “Nobody can see into the property.”

Ledger appears to have had a change of heart when it comes to bringing up his family in Los Angeles. Last year, he said he moved his family to New York because, “I didn’t want to raise my child in Hollywood.”

Ledger has been looking more and more like a street bum, with his unkempt hair, long scraggly beard, and wrinkled clothes. Ledger is reminding me of Howard Hughes towards his final days.
