A compound once owned by singer Marvin Gaye and his first wife, Anna, has come on the market in Hollywood Hills West at $3.799 million.
The 1.46-acre estate includes a four-bedroom, five-bathroom main house, a guesthouse, an outdoor kitchen and an eight-car motor court. Water spills down a wall of boulders and into the swimming pool. There is 3,156 square feet of living space.
Gaye, who died in 1984 at age 44, owned the house in the mid-1970s when Anna Gaye, the elder sister of Motown founder Berry Gordy, filed for divorce. She kept the house until 2008, when it sold for $1.91 million.
Ex-Griffin property sold
Actor Albert Brooks sold the former Merv Griffin estate for $6.275 million. The two-acre-plus property had been priced at $6.995 million. The listing says the property is in upper Bel-Air, although the Los Angeles Times Mapping Database considers the location to be Sherman Oaks.
The 5,100-square-foot, single-story house features wood-paneled ceilings, expanses of windows, four bedrooms and 5½ bathrooms.
