(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- Actress Jodie Foster has listed her Beverly Hills compound for sale at $9,975,000, the Multiple Listing Service shows.

The main house, with seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms, was built in 1949. Climbing vines and red brick accents give the home an East Coast vibe. Encompassing nearly an acre of land, the compound includes a tennis court, a swimming pool and a guesthouse.

Foster, 48, began working in commercials and television as a child. The actress-producer-director won Oscars for her roles in "The Accused" (1988) and "Silence of the Lambs" (1991). She stars in and directs "The Beaver," set for May release, and will star in the coming "God of Carnage."

She has owned the house since 2005. It was on the MLS then for $10.5 million. Foster was not available for comment.

The listing agents are Jeffrey Hyland and David Kramer of Hilton & Hyland, Beverly Hills, according to the MLS.
