The longtime Beverly Hills home of “Let’s Make a Deal” game show host Monty Hall and his wife, producer Marilyn Hall, has sold for $6.409 million, or $10,000 over the asking price.

Built in the 1920s, the classic Mediterranean house hit the market in early February and was in escrow after about a week on the market, according to real estate sources with knowledge of the sale. It had been the Hall family home for 55 years.

The two-story house has nearly 3,900 square feet of living space that includes a step-down living room, a formal dining room and a great room. The master suite has two bathrooms and a private terrace that overlooks lush landscaping and a swimming pool in the backyard.

Marilyn Hall, who also died last year, at 90, was an actress, author, songwriter and Emmy-winning producer. Among her credits was the television movies “A Woman Called Golda” (1982) and “Do Your Remember Love?” (1985).
