In This Market, Selling a Mansion Could Be Ruff

candy_spelling

I’m sure that by now some of you may have heard that Candy Spelling, widow of TV producer Aaron Spelling, has put her Holmby Hills home up for sale. But did you know that the $150 million asking price makes it the most expensive house on sale in America? Did you also know that Candy is a few peppermint twizzles short of a her store?

Spelling told The Associated Press that she let her dog Madison, a soft-coated Wheaten Terrier, help pick out the best real estate agent for the task. She had her security bring the dog into the room every time she met one of the candidate agents and watched how the dog reacted. If Madison didn’t like them, Spelling crossed them off the list.

Candy said she wanted to put the house up for sale because she wants to “start a new chapter in her life.” She’s “downsizing” from the 100-plus room mansion (I can’t tell you exactly how many rooms the place has because she has “never counted”) to a $47 million dollar luxury condo in L.A.

Spelling and her terrier will live on the bottom floor, while the upper floor will be occupied solely by her insanity.

  • It must be said.

    Tori Spelling is not nearly as fucked up as she should be, given this woman raised her.

  • the only chapter “kahandeei”Has left is the final chapter
    and were suppose to look to our elders for advice ?

  • the witch, i can’t believe she took all the money and left poor tori with only one million. what on earth is she gonna do with all that money!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • “only one million”? sorry, aaron spelling may have been worth many many more millions but i think it’s funny that one million is considered a small amount of money. wtf is tori doing that she needs more?

  • Since you weren’t sure how many rooms:

    His 6-acre mansion “The Manor” at 594 Mapleton Drive in Bel Air, California has 123 rooms, a bowling alley, swimming pool, gymnasium, tennis court, screening room and four 2-car garages. Spelling bought the property in 1983, including a house that had belonged to Bing Crosby. He demolished the Crosby house and built the largest single-family home in California.

    That’s one big ass house!

  • Why does anyone need a 56,000 sq ft. home? Celebrities like Oprah are so busy they barely even spend any time in them plus they are impossible to sell because of the enourmous cost of maintaining them. I just heard Mariah made an offer on a $150 million dollar pad nearby, dumb move considering her net worth is only $300 million. When she ends up broke I won’t feel a drop of sympathy.

  • I don’t give a fat rat’s ass about any of the Spellings, or the unfairness in distribution of wealth….I only care and LOVE that Candy’s upstairs will house her insanity.
    I must remember this line to steal/use it frequently!!!

  • Hello Everyone,
    This is a great deal for someone. With the market being the way that it is today, some upper-class millionaire or billionaire will swoop this one-of-a-kind luxury palace up at this unbelievable price. I am sure that it is out of the price range of some of us, but for others, this is a steal. Because Candy Spelling is downsizing, I must share with everyone my bargain basement find of a house at a great price. Check out what AGAPE’ Soldiers of Life and Light are doing at http://www.officialhouseraffle.com/ This is simply outstanding, positive, and will be a great home for anyone. Tell your friends about this one.
