It’s a wrap in the Hollywood Hills, where “The Big Bang Theory” star Kunal Nayyar has sold his secluded compound for $3.895 million.

The sale arrives about a year after Nayyar and his wife, model-actress Neha Kapur, upgraded in a major way, dropping $7.5 million on a 1920s Tudor in Hancock Park once owned by Nicolas Cage.

Their new place spans an acre and centers on a 7,100-square-foot home, but the Hollywood Hills property offers a different feel, as multiple structures and romantic outdoor spaces fill out the estate. Perched in Nichols Canyon, the compound holds a Mediterranean villa, two guesthouses and a swimming pool on a half-acre lot.

Listing agent Markus Canter said the sales campaign for the property was based on “the love, harmony and happiness that our clients had infused into it” — which apparently worked, as the property was only on the market 11 days.

The single-story villa is surrounded by fountains, cascading ivy, manicured hedges and a series of patios under string lights. Inside, paneled walls, built-ins and skylights highlight the formal common spaces.

The living room has a stylish wet bar, and the office takes in treetop views through a massive picture window. In total, there are four bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms in just over 4,000 square feet.

One guesthouse features a split-level space with a living room and bedroom, and the other is anchored by a kitchen with parquet floors.
