Two Couples, 3 Kids and a Sale

TOM SELLECK and his wife, dancer Jillie Mack, have sold their Mandeville Canyon home to action star Steven Seagal and his wife, actress Kelly LeBrock, sources say.

Selleck, who starred on CBS-TV’s “Magnum, P.I.” for six years until 1988 and then co-starred in the movie hits “Three Men and a Baby” and its sequel “Three Men and a Little Lady” plays an aging American ballplayer in the upcoming sports comedy “Tokyo Diamond.”

He also portrays King Ferdinand in the movie “Christopher Columbus: The Discovery,” scheduled to finish shooting next month.

Seagal starred as a hipster cop in the 1991 action-thriller “Out for Justice,” which he co-produced, and he also starred in the 1990 films “Marked for Death” and “Hard to Kill,” in which his wife also appeared. She is probably best known for her role in the 1984 movie “Woman in Red.”

The Seagals, who have two young children, bought the Sellecks’ Mandeville Canyon home for close to its asking price of $2.95 million, sources say.

The Sellecks, who have a young daughter, had owned the home since the fall of 1988, when they also bought a home in Hidden Valley. When they bought the Mandeville Canyon home, for slightly more than $2.5 million, they intended to split their time between the residences.

Since then, they have lived in the Spanish colonial-style ranch house on their 60-acre Hidden Valley spread, which they bought for a bit more than $5 million, and they remodeled the Paul Williams-designed house on their 2.5-acre Mandeville Canyon property.

Built in the late ‘30s, the Mandeville Canyon home has three bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths plus a one-bedroom guest house. It has a new kitchen, roof and riding ring. The home also has a stable, paddock, swimming pool and koi pond.

The Seagals own a 100-plus acre ranch in the Santa Ynez Valley, which sources say is for sale at $7.5 million, and the couple is said to have recently purchased a ranch on the Northern California coast.

They bought the Santa Ynez Valley property for a total of about $4.5 million and have added a martial arts studio to the 6,000-square-foot-plus ranch house, sources added.

KRISTY McNICHOL, who co-stars on the NBC sitcom “Empty Nest” and appeared in December in the CBS movie “Baby of the Bride,” has put her Sherman Oaks home up for sale at $975,000.

The 29-year-old actress, who made her acting debut at age 7 in TV commercials and went on to appear regularly in “Family” and other TV series, had lived in the home for about a year.

“She realized that it’s just too much of a house for a single person,” said a spokeswoman for Fred Sands Realtors, which has the listing through Rick Fields in the firm’s Sherman Oaks office.

“She fell in love with the home because it has a tennis court,” the spokeswoman said. McNichol, an avid tennis player, just hosted a tennis tournament in Brentwood to benefit HELP, a nonprofit group of agencies that deal with children who have special needs.

The ranch-style, 3,000-square-foot-plus home, built in the 1950s, also has four bedrooms, a guest house, pool, spa and sauna in the master suite.

McNichol has moved back to her former home, which the spokeswoman described as “a cottage” in Sherman Oaks, where the actress lived for nine years.

CHER, who owns houses in Malibu and Aspen, Colo., has purchased a get-away home for her mother, Georgia Holt, in Palm Desert.

The Oscar-winning actress bought a 2,200-square-foot, hillside hideaway with a three-bedroom main house and a guest house for close to its $395,000 asking price, according to public records.

The 3-year-old, Mediterranean-style home also has French doors leading to a pool, spa and rock waterfall. Holt’s permanent residence is in the Los Angeles area.

Eva Welsh and Norman Foster, of the Eva Welsh Co. in Rancho Mirage, represented Cher in the transaction.

The WRIGLEY MANSION in Phoenix, built between 1930 and ’31 for chewing-gum magnate William Wrigley and his family, is on the market at $4 million, including a Steinway player piano and some other original furnishings.

The Wrigleys, who maintained their primary residence in Chicago, also had homes in Pasadena and on Santa Catalina Island, which they used for a few weeks each winter.

The Phoenix home, which has 25 rooms in about 20,000 square feet, has interior walls inlaid with hand-painted tiles fired at the Wrigleys’ kiln in Catalina.

The white adobe, trimmed in turquoise, has six bedrooms, eight former bedrooms that have been converted into office/meeting rooms; two kitchens, 11 baths, seven fireplaces, and a 1,040-square-foot multipurpose room that can accommodate up to 150 people.

Since the Wrigley family sold the 6.2-acre property in 1973, the home has traded hands five times and has been used as a conference center and private club as well as a private residence. A bank has owned the property since a trustee sale last July.

The property is listed with Don Arones and Margaret Lloyd of Grubb & Ellis and Sharon Dupont and Marilyn Cummings of Russ Lyon Realty, all in Phoenix.
