"It's probably the best location in Serra Retreat," says Rogers, who sees potential buyers paying a premium for the estate, listed at $13.5 million. Loaded with four bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a sleek designer kitchen and plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, the house serves up signature California indoor/outdoor living.
As far as guard-gated communities in Malibu go, Serra Retreat probably ranks second only to the famed Malibu Colony (home to Sting , Leonardo DiCaprio and Brian Grazer ) in terms of desirability and exclusivity.
(Mel Gibson is also listing in the same neighborhood as Perry. His Lavender Hill Farm property, a Hacienda-style compound on 2.56 well-planted acres is for sale at $11.75 million, after two price-chops. It was originally listed at $14.5 million.)
