Marilyn Monroe's stunning former hideaway boasting nine bedrooms and 10 bathrooms goes on sale in LA's most exclusive neighborhood for $115 MILLION

A stunning mansion hailed as the most coveted property in Los Angeles has gone on sale - and it's yours for a tidy $115 million (£92.1m), Daily Mail reports.

The historic Owlwood Estate, which sits on 10 acres of land in the enclave of Holmby Hills, has been inhabited by some of Hollywood's most prominent figures since it was built in the 1930s.

The Italian Renaissance-style property, which neighbors Sunset Boulevard and the Los Angeles Country Club, was designed by architect Robert D. Farquhar, and regularly served as a secluded hideaway for screen legend Marilyn Monroe, who frequented it as a guest of her rumored lover, Joseph Schenck, the founder of 20th Century Fox.

In 2017, the home was used by host Jay-Z as the venue for the Grammy Awards brunch, which was attended by a host of Hollywood heavyweights, including Rihanna, Nick Jonas and DJ Khaled to name a few.

But the stunning nine bedroom home, which boasts ten bathrooms, as well as a guest house and staff quarters, is now looking for a new owner, reports Forbes.

Over the years the sprawling property has been inhabited by Hollywood royalty, including Schenck, who was also the first president of United Artists, as well as actor Tony Curtis, and Sonny and Cher.

During his time in the mansion, Schenck regularly entertained screen legend Marilyn, having first met her on a studio lot. Their close relationship, and her regular appearances at the sprawling mansion meant that rumors quickly spread about the two being lovers, however these were always denied by the starlet.

The home's lush location was selected by British entrepreneur Arthur Letts, who made his fortune in California by transforming a bankrupt dry goods store in LA into The Broadway department store. 

He was the visionary behind Holmby Hills, though he died before he could realize his plan for the land.

The home was built by his widow, Florence Letts Quinn, and her subsequent husband, businessman Charles H. Quinn.

The 12,201 square foot Owlwood mansion became the biggest and most grand residence in the county.

It's furnished with regal marble fireplaces, crystal chandeliers, hand-carved mantles and 24-karat gold fixtures and fittings.

There is a basement room with a lift to all three floors - an alternative to the stunningly grand spiral staircase.
