Nicer than Mar A Largo at a fraction of the cost.

Tear-down.

Is that all his estate was worth? $3 million?

I would have thought that Bob Barker's estate was worth more than that.

He worked on Price is Right for decades.

How many acres is it on? Calling the house an estate seems a bit of a stretch.

It's untouched since 1969... It's a wreck selling for land value

WHY must the asshole at R2 reference Trump is every fucking thread?

He should have left ME the estate, for all the times he groped me!

^ I love it too, but it will probably take millions to bring it up to date, but an original Hollywood Hills Outpost house sounds wonderful... Looks like I found a picture of it from the 1930s

It looks great.

[quote] BOB BARKER WATCHED 'TWO & A HALF MEN' IN FINAL DAYS ...

[quote] Bulk of Estate to Be Donated to 40+ Nonprofits

Bob Barker was still a big TV man during his final chapter, and now that he's gone -- his legacy lives on in a massive donation to 501(c)(3)s ... TMZ has learned.

The "Price is Right" host's longtime rep, Roger Neal, tells us Bob spent quite a bit of time checking out the tube in his last days of life ... including a lot of reruns of "Two and a Half Men" -- which, to people around him, reminded them Bob still had his sense of humor.

We're told Bob would also check out new episodes of his old show every now and then, and always thought Drew Carey had done well to carry on the torch after his retirement.

Now, as for what's going to happen to Bob's estate in the wake of his passing ... we're told a majority of it is going to be divvied up and donated to a number of causes he was passionate about, especially as it pertains to animals and vets.

Neal says a bulk of Bob's assets will be dispersed among over 40 different animal rights orgs and military nonprofits -- including the DonkeyLand Rescue in Riverside, CA, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society ... as well as a bird conservatory.

Some of the estate's assets are also going toward the United Activists for Animal Rights charity -- which BB's girlfriend, Nancy, leads as President. We're told she did well taking care of him over the past year ... making sure he was attended to round-the-clock.

Neal says Bob left Nancy in charge of pretty much everything -- noting he enjoyed life and lived in the moment. Bob was 99.

Urgently needs new floors. Love the back yard.

I think I saw it on a "Tour of the Homes of the Stars" I took once in L.A. IIRC, the house is in the Hollywood Hills, just around the corner from Richard Simmons.

TMZ's headline refers only to his house. He had plenty of money that wasn't tied up in real estate.

The second floor looks like a motel with the staircase.

It’s under contact. It might not be a tear down because it’s listed in city of LA historical-cultural monument #673 so it may be protected.

They should use it as a Showcase Showdown prize.

How did he live in that huge house with NO furniture???

by Anonymousreply 19April 12, 2024 4:56 AM

Looks like a Motel 6.

Bob was starting to make the big money (by the standard of the time) back in the late 50s. This house would have been palatial in that era. Creeping California architectural vulgarity makes it look mid middle class now.

As noted above if it's protected that may save it, but otherwise I agree it would be a knockdown.

I'd rather buy that than the Kanye West house. He's asking 39 million for this shithole.

I can't stand the Outpost neighborhood. It's just too much in the center of Hollywood for me.

There's not way out!
