The former California home of Frank Sinatra has gone on the market for just shy of $8 million.
The famous property was used as a “playground for the Hollywood elite”, and a rumoured fling between Marilyn Monroe and John F Kennedy is believed to have taken place there in the early 1960s.
It is also reportedly the most filmed private location in the US, generating between $750,000 – $1.2 million annually as a filming location.

These days, it’s not as steeped in the celebrity rumour mill, but it’s still a stunning home.
Boasting seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms, the property is spread across 758 square metres and enjoys 13 acres of private land, reports Luxury Property News.
Outside, the garden has a large swimming pool and sprawling lawns to bask in the California sunshine.
The location enjoys panoramic views of the Chatswoth Preserve, and the home itself was designed by architect William Pereira, and built in 1949.
A spokesperson for The Agency, who hold the listing, called it “Legendary, elite and exceptional in every way”.
They said: “While this listing has been over-priced for the past 13 years, under new ownership, it finally is ready to sell, for the right fair market value.
“This property has been grossly under-utilized to maximize its income potential.
“This property has been mis-marketed for years.
“Yes, it is a ground-breaking Mid Century modern designed by America’s iconic architect William Pereria.
“Yes, it was owned by Frank Sinatra and was the playground for Hollywood’s elite.
“Yes, the rumors of Marilyn Monroe and JFK being there ‘together’ are true.
“Yes, there is Tentative Tract Map approval for eleven separate parcels and can be developed as a very special guard-gated community.
“Yes, it is zoned for Equestrian and Agriculture (think Vineyard!).
“And yes, it is indeed America’s most filmed private location and does indeed historically generate between $750,000 – $1,200,000 annually with a “who’s who” of Hollywood productions.
“Every studio, every production designer, and every location manager knows about this fabled property.”
The home is currently on the market for $7,995,000 with Craig Knizek and Blair Chang of The Agency.
