Share

The one-time Beverly Hills-area home of actress Janet Leigh is on the market at $3.75 million.

Built in 1976, the modern traditional-style home is set on a promontory of more than half an acre with a swimming pool and tennis court. The 4,432-square-foot ocean-view house features high ceilings, four bedrooms and five bathrooms.

Leigh, who died in 2004 at age 77, starred in “Touch of Evil” (1958) and “The Manchurian Candidate” (1962) but is perhaps best remembered in film for her murder in the shower scene of “Psycho” (1960).

The property last changed hands in 2010 for $2.8 million.

Mimi Starrett of Coldwell Banker’s Beverly Hills South office and Nancy Sill of Coldwell Banker, Malibu Colony, are the listing agents.
