Spelling Mansion Secretly On the Market

TMZ has learned that Candy Spelling, Aaron's widow, has quietly put the Spellings' legendary mansion on the market for $150 million.

Sources in the real estate industry say Westside Estate Agency (WEA) has a pocket listing on the 56,000 square foot estate, meaning it is quietly being shopped among realtors and select buyers. The mansion, located in the exclusive Holmby Hills area of L.A., was completed in 1991 for around $47 million, which includes $10 million for the land.

One real estate source says Candy Spelling has let a lot of people on the staff go and that the buzz is that she is going to shut the house down so it can be shown by realtors. Aaron Spelling died on June 23.

78. Who has the money to spend 150 million on a house. Use that money for doing good. Help the poor. Use that money for disease research. Help build homeless shelters. Donate some to the Humans Society. Please....do not be a moron and spend 150 million on a house. If you do I wish you nothing but bad luck with your idiotic investment!

80. The man produced a ton of shows that most of us grew up with... He made and deserved his fortune. What his wife does with it is none of our business. There are numerous quiet millionaires (outside of the ent. industry) that could snatch this up. I'd imagine it WON'T sell for the asking price, but then again... someone might be willing to pay it if they want it bad enough.

I'm sure any of those who posted negatively toward this story... you'd change your tune if you were on the receiving end of a $150 mil sale. How bout direct that energy toward making something for yourself instead of griping about it.

81. Yeah----- and YOU would give all proceeds to a charity?

C'mon.

Don't let your mouth write a check your ass can't cash.

82. I agree. People with so much money should give to those who don't. So sell your computer and send the money to some people in a third world country who are really poor. For that matter, sell everything you have. Why should you have so much when others are suffering? It's sinful. If you're not willing to then stop busting the chops of the people who have more than you.

83. Re:WHO WOULD WANT TO BUY A HOUSE THAT SOMEONE DIES IN ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So you think that most houses over 50 years old are uninhabitable?
I don't see why Candy is obligated to donate the house proceeds because her husband died. It should sell for whatever the market can bear. Would you refuse money? I don't think so. I know I could not stay in my house if my wife died. I would have to leave because of the memories.

84. AARON IS PROBABLY TURNING OVER IN HIS GRAVE RIGHT NOW,
WHICH INCIDENTALLY, WAS MODELED AFTER THE ONE BUILT FOR PHAROAH RAMSES IN THE VALLEY OF THE KINGS -- ONLY AARON'S IS MUCH LARGER.

85. Sounds to me like this woman never liked the house, or
if she did, she
finally decided it was way too much house. I don't blame her for
wanting to dump it. The upkeep and taxes are probably a few million
per year.

86. First, it's her house to do with what she wants. Second, we don't know but that they had a plan in place a long time ago about what to do with the mansion upon the death of either of them. The comparison with Mexico, et al is absurd. We have a large and healthy middle class that Mexico and its ilk do not. It's not the house I would want, and I would prefer, too, that someone do better things with their money than buy a $150 mil house, but hey, it's their money and I don't have the right to tell them how to spend it and neither do any of you.

87. Think of the ridiculous annual California county/state property taxes on a $150 million dollar "home".

88. Wow..I knew the Jewish grieving period was short but Candy wants her Candy now!
Probably a lot of memories in that 56,000 sq ft crib..Actually I'll bet their are zip codes in that place Candy has never been to..
Aaron who?
Love you..Mean it..let's do lunch

89. "The vice of capitalism is that there is an unequal share of the blessings; the virtue of socialism is that there is an equal share of the misery." -Sir Winston Churchill, British statesman (1874-1965)

90. Glad to see socialists in full swing here. Spelling earned the money he used to buy this house. No one gave it to him. He didn't steal it. He used his mind to come up with innovative content that people enjoyed and gladly paid for (cable, buying the goods advertised etc.) Democracy and capitalism are the worst systems... except for all the others.

Grow up you whining pansie commies
