Brittany Murphy's $7.25M Hollywood Hills Home Off the Market


Brittany Murphy's husband Simon Monjack has taken her 8,000-square-foot Hollywood Hills home off the market. The five bedroom, seven-bathroom home on Rising Glen Road, where Murphy passed away, was listed at a steep $7.25 million. Zillow currently estimates the house at $5 million.

According to TMZ, Murphy's mother, Sharon, felt uncomfortable showing the house with her daughter's belongings inside. No word on whether the home will be put back on the market at a later date once the belongings are removed.
Murphy purchased the Hollywood Hills home for $3.85 million in 2003 from another Brit, Britney Spears. It was Spears' first Hollywood home. Until Murphy's death, the home was occupied by Murphy, her mother and husband. Murphy left her entire estate in her will to her mother. Monjack had said that he and Sharon wanted to get out of Los Angeles and put the home up for sale in March for $7.25 million. They had been planning to move to New York, separately but together.

Murphy passed away on December 20th, 2009. The primary cause of death was listed as pneumonia with other contributing factors including anemia and intoxication of multiple drugs. Her death was ruled accidental. The star of films like "Clueless" and "Girl, Interrupted" was 32 years-old.
