Johnny Carson’s former Los Angeles home is officially on the market. The 9,052-square-foot home in Bel Air is on sale for $40 million in partnership with listing agents David Kramer and Andrew Buss of Compass. Originally built in 1950, the six-bedroom and 11-bathroom home is located on a 1.5 acre property, which also features a detached two-story guest house. In the main house, guests will find a library, wine cellar and a home office, in addition to two large garages, a gourmet kitchen and a spacious primary bedroom with walk-in closets and two ensuite bathrooms. Also found on the property is a motor court which can accommodate many vehicles, a unique tiered fountain, an oval swimming pool, with a sun deck and a cabana. A regulation tennis court with its own covered seating area can also be found on the grounds, as well as an indoor area with a kitchenette and a powder room.
Carson purchased the home in the 1970s and lived there with his third wife, Joanna, until their separation in 1985, after which Carson lived in his home in Malibu, which hit the market for $110 million last year. All proceeds from the sale will go to three charities: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the David Geffen Foundation, and SHARE, per The Robb Report.
