Via The LA Times I discovered that the Brentwood home where Marilyn Monroe passed away has been listed For Sale at $3.6 Million.

The property last sold for $925,000 in 1996 and had previously changed hands in 1986 for $850,000.

The home at 12305 5th Helena Drive in Brentwood, CA 90049 is the only home the actress ever owned. She lived in the house for 6 months before her death.

According to The MLS "the home is an authentic 1929 Hacienda situated behind tall gates at the end of a quiet cul de sac. The 2600 sq ft home has 4 Beds and 3 Baths and features traditional casement windows, polished concrete & terra cotta tile floors & original wood beamed ceilings".

Monroe had purchased the home in 1962 for $90,000, and had been set to make mortgage payments at $320 a month. (Property Taxes on the current List Price would be approximately $3750 per month).

The property is listed by David Offer of Prudential California Realty, with photos by Lee Manning.

Thanks for the reblog, Mike!  Stewart always comes up with fascinating properties for sale in his area.  Interesting, in looking at the pictures I can still see the news reports play in my head when she died.

nice reblog Mike.  Amazing the appreciation still in play from 1996 despite the market drop.

Hey Drew, I was thinking the same thing regarding appreciation. Ofcourse it has the whole star factor you have to consider too.

I wonder what the fiscal value would be WITHOUT the celebrity ties? Nice re-blog.
