Hodge Podge Thursday: Kathy Najimy


Actress and comedian Kathy Najimy (King of the Hill, Veronica's Closet, the Sister Act movie franchise) and her long-time actor/singer husband Dan Finnerty have hoisted their house in the hills above Studio City, CA on the market with an asking price of $1,875,000.

Property records show Miz Najimy paid $550,000 for the gated and very private property way back in 1994 and current listing details show the single story contemporary ranch style residence—the long-legged gal at Trulia Luxe Living called it a "Fixer-Upper"—measures 3,409 square feet with a voluminous vaulted ceiling in the living and dining rooms, an eat-in kitchen, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Theres a backyard with swimming pool, spa and panoramic views of the San Fernando Valley as well as an attached garage that's been converted to a so-described "creative space" with a "recording room area."

Interesting tidbit apropos of nothing real estate related: Miz Najimy and Mister Finnerty were married in 1995 in New York City in a ceremony officiated by women's lib pioneer Gloria Steinem. Imagine that?

Reminds me of our old summer home -- a Stanmar prefab:

Spectacular view from on high but there appears to be a serious erosion issue between Wrightwood & Mountaincastle Drives...

Cozy, but as LGB points out looks like a 2nd/weekend home. I rarely think more should be done with the nicely sited older LA homes but this place could use a major upgrade.
