Hot Property: Nick Zano lists West Hollywood home

If this how-I-got-into-the-movies story on Wikipedia is true, I love it. Nick Zano – a model-turned-actor – came to Hollywood seeking fortune and fame the old-fashioned way: He took a job selling shoes at Kenneth Cole.

But in a Schwab’s drugstore moment, he was discovered by a customer – a woman who worked for MTV and thought he had what it takes to be an on-air personality. He landed the job of hosting MTV’s “Movie House.”

And now, with some movie credits under his belt and a couple of starlets on his arm, he’s diving into Hollywood’s favorite pastime: trying to sell his house. He’s listed his West Hollywood home at $1,050,000.

The three-bedroom, 1 1/2 -bathroom house has about 1,600 square feet and is just one block off Melrose. The house, built in 1924, has hardwood floors, wood-beamed ceilings, arched windows and balconies. There are courtyards both in front and in back of the gated property. Two of the three bedrooms open to a large deck.

The 30-year-old Zano played Vince in the WB sitcom “What I Like About You” – and dated the series’ costar Amanda Bynes. He appears in “Beverly Hills Chihuahua,” due out in October and featuring the voices of Drew Barrymore and Salma Hayek.

Jon Bronson of Westside Estate Agency, Beverly Hills, has the listing.
