Best known for voicing Bender in the culty cartoon “Futurama,” DiMaggio called the move “bittersweet,” adding, “It’s where we’ve been for a while.”

The couple, both native New Yorkers, moved into the house as a starter home, but it became much more than that.

“We liked it so much. We ended up there for 14 years,” Miller said. “A comfort zone is a wonderful place, but nothing ever grows there.”

Set against the Verdugo Mountains, the three-story hillside dwelling offers sweeping valley views, open-concept interiors, a regenerating brook and decks. Bleser’s Bauhaus-inspired vision remains intact, with carefully preserved original detailing and recent modern updates.

Inside, the couple outfitted the space with work and play in mind.

“During COVID, I recorded a lot of things from home, and it was more of a studio slash office, in the house,” DiMaggio said. “There’s great work space in the house.”

A life-sized replica of Bender — gifted to DiMaggio by the creators of “Futurama” — currently stands watch inside the studio, a physical reminder of the show’s long legacy.

“That’s something that I got from ‘Futurama’ a long time ago that only a couple of people have gotten,” DiMaggio said.

Outside, the property is a haven for wildlife — frequent visits from deer, owls and hawks have added to its peaceful, woodsy charm.

“It’s a beautiful special place up there in the hills. And it’s a really unique architectural piece of property,” Miller added.

Originally designed with entertainers and creatives in mind, the roughly 3,000-square-foot residence includes a dramatic glass conservatory with double-height windows, two levels of entertaining space, and a private third-story retreat with bedrooms and outdoor lounge areas.

The home’s custom brook feature, lush landscaping and privacy fencing enhance its appeal, while its walkability to Ventura Boulevard and sushi favorites like Avi Cue and KazuNori add urban convenience.

DiMaggio’s on-camera appearances span everything from “Better Call Saul,” “Modern Family” and “Interview with the Vampire,” to voice work in “Zootopia,” “Transformers: Dark of the Moon,” “Samurai Jack” and “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.”

Miller, a veteran of both stage and screen, has appeared in everything from “Blue Bloods” and “Hightown” to Broadway productions with Carol Burnett and Michael Sheen. Her voice roles include “Sealab 2021,” “Frisky Dingo” and major video games like “God of War: Ragnarök.”

The couple began dating in 2011.

They also recently went into contract on their Palm Springs home, which they’ve owned for 11 years. These days, they’re spending summers in the Hamptons and continue to maintain a home in Manhattan’s West Village.

“John was born in New York and raised in Jersey, so we’re East Coast people,” Miller said.

Still, their hillside LA home holds a special place as they are still figuring out where they will permanently settle.

“It’s the house we bought when we first got married,” DiMaggio said. “So there’s a lot of nostalgia attached to it.”

As for the life-sized Bender statue that currently resides in DiMaggio’s studio? Miller offered one final note — with a laugh — to her husband: “It will not come in the [new] house.”
