Sharon Cuneta puts Los Angeles home up for sale

Prolific Filipino actress-singer-television personality Sharon Cuneta has put her home in a guard-gated Calabasas community on the market for $2.195 million (Dh8 million).

She bought the house six years ago for $2 million, records show.

The two-storey traditional house, built in 1977, opens to a grand foyer with marble floors, an elaborate chandelier and a sweeping staircase. A dining room done in detailed wainscoting and a living room with a fireplace sit off the formal entry.

Other common rooms include a family room with a wet bar, a centre-island kitchen and a library/study. The master suite has his-and-hers bathrooms, two walk-in closets and a sitting room for a total of six bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms in more than 613 square metres.

Outdoors, a covered patio opens to a swimming pool with a spa and waterfall feature. A built-in barbecue, a sunken trampoline and a large lawn are also on the grounds.

Stephanie Vitacco of Keller Williams Realty is the listing agent.

Cuneta, 49, has appeared in scores of Filipino movies including Maging Sino Ka Man (1991), Madrasta (1996) and Caregiver (2008). As a singer, she has recorded more than three dozen albums.

She currently hosts a daytime talk show Sharon: Kasama Mo, Kapatid in the Philippines.
