Purchased eight months into her marriage to British actor, Russell Brand, apparently things were already getting rocky since they never moved in. Russell filed for divorce six months after the purchase. Katy said it was a disagreement over starting a family that caused the split. Oh, that’s right, . . . no one discusses plans for the future before getting married anymore.

Even more interesting is the estate’s former owner, Daniel Laikin. Prior to being convicted of securities fraud and sentenced to prison in 2010, Laikin was the CEO of National Lampoon. FBI agents, guns drawn, arrested him at this home. Yes, the new owner of this home will get a bonus of hours of cocktail party gossip!

C.F. DeWitt built the home in 1925. He was one of the developers responsible for subdividing much of the Hollywood area in the early 1920s. In those years, developers used their own home as a showcase to advertise the excellence of their business. Except for modern updates and the addition of another guest house in 2004, the compound is unchanged, including the lagoon swimming pool.

At 8,835 square feet, the home has 7 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms, an impressive oval foyer with stone walls and a curving staircase leading to a musicians’ balcony overlooking the huge living room. Its 3 acres of grounds in the Hollywood Hills has stunning views over the city. Neighbors include Frank Lloyd Wright's famed Storer House.

Perry bought the house in 2011 with ex spouse Russell Brand but never moved in. Now for sale asking $6.925 million.
