For those of you who are starstruck, or just enjoy knowing what is going on in your neighborhood...Well, if you live in Palm Springs, California, then you probably have driven by this home alot. This is the former Palm Springs Home of Liberace.
A while back I blogged about it (Former Home of Liberace Sells for $1,260,000)...and even had an Italian gentleman call me and ask me if he could acquire the chandelier. Since I didn't participate in the sale of it, I didn't have the new owners information so was not able to help him. But...in the meantime...this story surfaced and I began to put two-and-two together. It appears that HBO is going to be making a movie about Liberace and starring, Michael Douglas and Matt Damon.
From what I understand, they will be filming in Los Angeles, Palm Springs and Las Vegas.
I believe they will be filming at this home...it measures just over 6,000 square feet (they changed the front with this remodel a bit from it's previous look (see my previous blog entry to compare) and the remodel is going beautifully. It's a 5 bedroom, 7 bath home, with a pool...on a corner lot and had previously sold for $1,260,000.
I'm including another photo so you get more scale.
This is exciting and although I'm not a fan of Liberace, I am still excited to be watching this new venture of HBO's (I'm assuming, they will be filming at the remodeled home, but this is NOT CONFIRMED at this time) and the making of the biopic, "Behind The Candelabra".
