Frank Sinatra’s Los Angeles, Calif., residence is being listed for the first time in 50 years. On the market for $22.5 million, the entertainer’s former home is accented with large Santa Barbara stones, a tile roof, a double motor court as well as many balconies, making the home a true California hacienda. Original features, such as the theater that was used as Sinatra’s screening room, enhance this estate. The sparkling pool is set away from the main house and features two changing rooms. Stone walls, vaulted ceilings, a staff wing, two libraries and a garden room are offered within this residence, which is located on a star-studded block in Southern California.
