Brian Bosworth in Malibu, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

I first heard about former football player and sometimes actor Brian Bosworth's efforts to sell his Malibu home back in 2007 when he was listed as his own real estate agent. Back then this home was listed at $11.9 million and didn't sell. The home was off the market for a while and then popped up again up for sale for $8.995 million. Bosworth must be a motivated seller because the home has had another price cut, now down to $6.9 million. The listing pictures don't reveal much but the home is on an approximately 1.7 acre compound with around 10,500 square feet of interior space. It has expansive views of the coastline. The large kitchen, one of the few rooms shown in the pictures, has both a large island and a breakfast nook. Outside there is a pool, pool house and a separate guest house.
