Marilyn Monroe's Dreamhouse

There's absolutely nothing but wonderful things that Barbie can say about Marilyn Monroe. She was sassy, sophisticated and her style was impeccable with everything she did including her dreamhouse. 

Marilyn Monroe's Dreamhouse

 

The historic four-bedroom, three-bath property that was screen legend Marilyn Monroe’s final home just hit the market for $6.9 million. The home, currently for sale, is an almost-untouched example of Hollywood’s golden age.

 

Built in 1929, the Spanish-style hacienda is tucked behind tall gates at the end of a cul-de-sac in one of the most highly coveted neighborhoods of Brentwood. Located on a half-acre lot, the peaceful and private estate, which measures 2,624 square feet, boasts beamed ceilings, terra-cotta tile floors, and casement windows. Outside, a spacious, grassy yard is complemented by a citrus grove and swimming pool, as well as a patio area ideal for entertaining.

 

Marilyn bought the home four months before she died here in 1962, and speculation about the property has continued ever since. For example, during a renovation in the 1970s, a highly sophisticated eavesdropping system was reportedly discovered inside the walls of the estate. And here’s another fun fact: Marilyn reportedly purchased the home for just $90,000 back in 1962. If only prices were like that now!
