TV legend Bob Barker’s historic Hollywood Hills estate, where he lived for over 50 years, has sold after a whirlwind month on the market.

The home of the game-show host, who died in 2023, landed on the market in March and was quickly snapped up. The six-bedroom, six-bathroom house was recently purchased for $3,788,000—an impressive $800,000 over the asking price.

The 5,906-square-foot Spanish Colonial Revival-style abode was built in 1929.

It’s one of the most famous properties in the Outpost Estates neighborhood. The current residence is at the site of the Original Outpost, which was said to be the first home built in that area of the Hollywood Hills and has since been torn down.

The address is also where Harrison Grey Otis, who founded the Los Angeles Times, lived from 1880-1917.

Barker isn’t the only Hollywood star who made the picturesque California neighborhood home. Other celebs, like Ben Affleck and Winona Ryder, have ties to the area.

Historic details

The home has an original fresco on the hallway ceiling, in addition to rounded doorways and a breathtaking, carved-wood fireplace in the living room.

There’s also an impressive library/den area and original stained-glass windows and doors.

The second level has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, while the remaining two bedrooms and one bathroom are in the basement.

According to the listing, Barker had not changed the home since he bought it in 1969. It’s also an official City of L.A. Historic-Cultural Monument.

A serene backyard

Out back, there’s a pool; a large, grassy area; a 450-square-foot garage; an oversized oak tree.

Barker died at the age of 99 in August 2023. He hosted “The Price is Right” from 1972-2007. Before that, he hosted another game show, “Truth or Consequences,” from 1956-1975. The iconic television star started his career in radio broadcasting.
