The estate of former New York Met and Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Lenny Dykstra has been showing up on the Multiple Listing Service’s pre-foreclosure activity report for the last several weeks. The Zillow.com blog posted an item on it in mid-April.

The Richard Landry-designed home is listed for sale at $25 million, having been priced as low as $16.5 million in December. It has been on the market for about a year. Public records show the baseball player purchased it for $18.5 million in August 2007. Ouch.

The seven-acre compound in Thousand Oaks is gated and has views of the Lake Sherwood community and the country club facilities.

Hat tip: Pete in Mar Vista.
