Jerry Seinfeld selling Colorado property for US$18.25 million

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Castle Rock, Colorado, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) July 28, 2011 --
Jerry Seinfeld, the star and co-creator of hit US television show ‘Seinfeld’, has put his Colorado estate on the property market for US$18.25 million.

Nestled in the Rocky Mountains and described as “an evolving series of Western ranch structures”, the twenty six acre property boasts eleven bedrooms and fourteen bathrooms.

After he bought the estate, Seinfeld ordered a multi-million dollar renovation and expansion of the property. It now has a separate guest house, a hot tub, a steam shower and a four car heated garage.

A large patio at the rear overlooks Sunshine and Wilson Peaks, which were made famous in the Coors Brewing Company television advertisements.

The area is no stranger to celebrities as the nearby town and ski resort of Telluride is popular with the rich and famous.

Other high profile property owners in the locale include billionaire fashion designer Ralph Lauren and Hollywood couple Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

Jerry Seinfeld rose to fame during the 1990’s when he starred in the comedy series ‘Seinfeld’.

Co-written by Larry David, the show aired on NBC between July 1989 and May 1998. It ran for nine seasons and one hundred and eighty episodes.

The show is set in a fictional apartment block in Manhattan and features Seinfeld’s friends; George Costanza (Jason Alexander); ex-girlfriend Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus); and Cosmo Kramer (Michael Richards).

The show was so successful that the final episode was watched by over seventy six million viewers. This made it the third most watched finale in television history after M.A.S.H and Cheers.

According to Forbes magazine, Seinfeld’s earnings from the show in 2004 were US$267 million, making him the highest earning celebrity that year.

The comedy received numerous awards including; the Emmy Award for ‘Outstanding Comedy Series’ in 1993; the Golden Globe Award for ‘Best TV Series Comedy’ in 1994; and the Screen Actors Guild Award for ‘Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series’ in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998.

Due to its high viewing figures, the show became the first TV series to command over US$1 million a minute for advertising.

The show still generates revenue through syndication and DVD sales.

Seinfeld has been repeatedly offered as much as US$5 million per episode to film a tenth series but he has always refused.

More recently Seinfeld co-wrote the computer animated film ‘Bee Movie’. Jerry also provides the voice for the lead character, Barry B. Benson, alongside Renee Zellweger, John Goodman and Chris Rock.

Ecclestone buys Aaron Spelling property in Los Angeles for US$85 million

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Los Angeles, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) July 22, 2011 --
Petra Ecclestone, the daughter of F1 Supremo Bernie Ecclestone, has bought the Los Angeles home of Amercian film and television producer, Aaron Spelling.

The twenty two year old fashion designer paid a reported US$85 million for the US property.

Spelling bought the house from singer and actor Bing Crosby in 1983. The ‘Starsky and Hutch’ producer then demolished Crosby’s home and built his 5,300m2 mansion in its place.

The property, known as The Manor, is located in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles and is the largest single family home in California.

The Manor is set on six acres of land and has a total of fourteen bedrooms and twenty seven bathrooms. The property boasts a bowling alley, a gym, a movie theatre and parking space for one hundred cars.

Outside, there is a tennis court, a koi pond and a heated swimming pool complete with a pool house, a kitchen and a bar.

The mansion also has several rooms dedicated to specific activities such as; a wrapping room; a silverware storage room; a flower cutting room; and a beauty salon.

There is even a ‘Prince Charles Room’ where the heir to the UK throne once spent the night.

The service wing has five staff bedrooms along with two butler’s suites.

Aaron’s wife, Candy Spelling, put the property on the market with an initial asking price of US$150 million in 2009; three years after the ‘Charlie’s Angels’ producers death. This made it the most expensive residential listing in the USA.

Although Petra bought the estate at a discount, she is rumoured to have borrowed US$82.4 million from her mother, Salvica.

Bernie Ecclestone and Salvica divorced in 2009. Their divorce settlement left Salvica with an estimated fortune of US$1 billion.

However, this is not Petra’s first big money property purchase with parental assistance. At the end last year her father bought her a US$91 million, six-storey Grade II listed property in Chelsea, London.

Petra is set to marry her finance James Stunt in August.

Steve Coogan swaps Travel Tavern for £2.45 million UK property

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 19, 2011 --
British comedian and Hollywood actor Steve Coogan won’t need to stay at the local Travel Tavern like his comedy alter-ego ‘Alan Partridge’. He is now the proud new owner of Ovingdean Grange near Brighton in West Sussex, United Kingdom. Coogan paid a reported £2.45 million (US$3.95 million) for the property.

The sixteenth century Grade II listed building has six bedrooms a billiard room, a cinema and is surrounded by walled gardens.

The property was immortalised in the 1857 novel ‘Ovingdean Grange: A Tale of the South Downs’ by William Harrison Ainsworth.

The book is set in England in 1651. It tells the tale of how King Charles II escaped his enemies by hiding in an oak tree in the grounds of the house before he fled to France at the end of the English Civil War.

Charles is also thought to have spent an uncomfortable night hiding from The Roundheads in the chimney breast of the master bedroom. And, despite spending just twenty four hours at the house, he is said to have fathered a child in the process.

In reality, the defeated king took refuge at Boscobel House in Brewood, Staffordshire.

Ainsworth also revealed that his inspiration for the manor house in his most famous work ‘Rookwood’ came from his memories of Ovingdean Grange. Published in 1834, the book popularised the story of highwayman Dick Turpin.

Steve Coogan is probably best known for his character ‘Alan Partridge’; a socially inept local radio presenter from Norwich.
He has also appeared in several Hollywood films such as; ‘Around the World in 80 Days’, ‘Night at the Museum’, ‘Tropic Thunder’, ‘Hamlet 2’ and ‘The Other Guys’.
