Don Rickles Sells Malibu Home for over 11 Million
Celebrity Home Sales – What is more amazing is that they bought a new home with more square footage, albeit no ocean front property, for only 3 million and change.
Don Rickles, king of the insult comedians, and his wife, Barbara, have settled into their new Point Dume home and sold their longtime Malibu Colony residence for just under its $11.5-million asking price.
Their Colony home, with about 80 feet of beachfront, was first listed at $13.5 million in February 2004. The couple had lived in the home since the late ’70s.
Among its features are a 5,000-square-foot main house, a detached guesthouse, a north-south tennis court, a terrace and a pool looking out onto the ocean. The home, built in the early ’70s, has six bedrooms and 7 1/2 bathrooms, a sitting room, fireplace and coastline views. Los Angeles Times.
Rickles is still working in Las Vegas and Atlantic City at the age of 79. Can you imagine sitting at the closing table negotiating with Don Rickles? Yikes… No wonder he got full price. “Look fella, if you do not buy this house, your name will be forever in my act and you will have to go to bed knowing thousands of people will be laughing at you every night! So sign the papers and get this deal done…”
