Fans ‘heartbroken’ as Matthew Perry’s second LA home which he bought months before death goes on sale
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: One of Matthew Perry’s Los Angeles properties has been listed back in the property market.
The ‘Friends’ star - who released his memoir 'Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing' in 2022, closed the deal on the $5 million house last May, just a few months before his tragic death in October 2023, which shook the world.
The late actor, who breathed his last in his other LA property at Pacific Palisades, aged 54, did not even get a chance to enjoy his new home, per Daily Mail.
Perry was found unresponsive in the hot tub of his Pacific Palisades house on October 28, with his autopsy listing the cause of his death as “acute effects of ketamine".

The classic property boasts of all-day natural light through its oversized glass windows.
Adding to the sunny porch, the house has a beautiful swimming pool and firepit on the south-facing deck, along with a double garage.
The fully furnished home comes with light-colored walls and contemporary furniture in wood and earth-toned palettes.
