Whitney Houston's House Now On Sale!

Thursday, February 16, 2012
The home where the late singer Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown got married has been put back on sale, giving fans a glimpse at its plush interior.





According to Radar, the "Mendham New Jersey" mansion is on the market for $1.75 million after Houston initially put it up for sale back in 2009, two years after her marriage to Brown ended.


It is  a spacious house with curved walls and high ceilings.
The living room features a skylight and floor to ceiling windows with an exposed brick wall, while the bedroom features an open plan layout with a bed on a raised platform in the centre.



According to Radar, the house was featured in Brown's 2005 reality show, "Being Bobby Brown".


It is described  as "a stunning departure from the ordinary , a sheer bravado of expansiveness and creative expression, this ranch,style contemporary home fulfils the fondest aspirations."




The home itself is designed with an open plan layout in mind, with the dining room providing space for 12 people.


The kitchen features white units and red tiling with a breakfast bar in the middle of the room, while the sumptuous bathroom boasts glass brick walls and a round bathtub.


The listing adds that the home is: "Set on over five acres in a haven of lushly, landscaped privacy, innovative design both stimulating and sheltering prevails throughout this 5 bedroom, 4.2 bath home.

"Outstanding features include curved window-walls, domed skylights, a gracefully flowing floor plan, and walk-out lower entertainment level allowing for contiguous enjoyment of superb tiered terraces and lawn."

According to Radar, Houston had previously placed the 12,561 square foot estate for sale at $2.5 million back in 2009, before slashing the price to $1.97 million.

She then took it off the market at the end of 2011 before its re-listing last month for $1.75 million.




A chain link fence now surrounds the property, and they report that the estate appears to be neglected with overgrown weeds.

Radar previously reported that the hit singer's finances were in bad shape before her death on Saturday.




"Whitney’s fortune is gone," the source said at the time. '"Music industry heavy hitters are supporting her and her label is fronting her cash against her next album, but no one knows when that will be released.



"She might be homeless if not for people saving her. She is broke as a joke. She called someone to ask for $100."


Whitney Houston died on Saturday afternoon after she was found unconscious and unresponsive in her bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles.

The award winning singer, who was 48-years-old, was declared dead by paramedics at 3:55 pm.

The funeral for Whitney Houston will take place on Saturday in Newark, New Jersey.
