This magnificent place, owned by talented dancer, singer, and Academy-Award-winning actress Ginger Rogers has just hit the market. Public records show that the home last sold May 2011 for $1.9 million and was part of a multi-property sale. Now, the house is asking $4.495 million, a drop from the $4.995 it was asking when it first hit the market back in April. The Spanish-Revival-style estate was custom-built for Rogers in 1927. Situated above the Sunset Strip, the home offers 4,800 square feet of living space along with panoramic views of the city and the hills.
The home has five bedrooms and four bathrooms, a formal living room, several sitting areas, a chef’s kitchen with a breakfast bar and a dining area as well. Interior details include dark hardwood flooring, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, arched hallways and large glass windows.
Outside can be found a covered patio, ample seating areas and a two-car parking garage.
During her lifetime Ginger Rogers bough and sold a few houses. She passed away at the age of 83 in 1995, at her Rancho Mirage, Calif., home.
