Marilyn Monroe Home Gets LA Historic Status – Owners Are Suing

by toptenrealestatedeals

The city of Los Angeles has declared Marilyn Monroe’s former home in LA’s Brentwood neighborhood a historic monument, which protects the property from any significant changes. The home’s current owners bought the property in 2023 for $8 million with plans to demolish it. They are suing the city, claiming that the home is now worthless.

Marilyn bought the home in 1962 for $75,000. She died there in August 1962 from a barbiturate overdose.
