It’s no myth: ‘Thor’s’ Chris Hemsworth keeps a foothold in Malibu

Some folks are bicoastal, this couple is bicontinental. Actors Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky, who call Australia home, have picked up a gated Malibu retreat for $3.45 million.

The 1979 Contemporary has a very different vibe from the Point Dume Victorian they listed for sale at $6.5 million.

Their new place is boxy with tall ceilings and long windows and doors. Rooms open to views of the mountains and ocean.

The decked-out kitchen features commercial-grade appliances, quartz counters and a 750-bottle refrigerated wine cellar. The open-plan space has polished concrete floors that open to a deck with a glass fireplace. There are terraced gardens and a yard.

The 4,600 square feet of living space includes a home theater/family room, four bedrooms, four full bathrooms and a powder room.

Hemsworth, 32, plays the mythological superhero Thor in the Marvel films and will star in “Thor: Ragnarok� next year. Among his other film credits are “The Cabin in the Woods� (2012), “Rush� (2013) and “Blackhat� (2015).

Pataky, 39, was in last year’s “Furious 7� as well as the two previous installments of the “Fast & Furious� franchise, “Fast & Furious 6� and “Fast Five.�

Shen Schulz of Sotheby’s International Realty was the listing agent. Ryan Davis of John Aaroe Group represented the couple, who have a residence in Australia.
