TTK Represents of HK Lane, an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, holds the listing.
Gabor, who died Sunday at 99, had scores of TV and film credits including a starring role in “Moulin Rouge” (1952). She appeared on the game show “Hollywood Squares” throughout the 1960s and ’70s and “The New Hollywood Squares” in the ‘80s.
