Home where Liberace died back on the market
Friday February 07, 2003PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (AP) The lavish Spanish-style estate where Liberace died in 1987 is back on the market for $2.75 million.
Stefan Hemming, who bought the home from Liberace's estate for $750,000 in 1990, said he's selling the home because ``it's time to move on.''
Built in 1930 by Palm Springs pioneer Alvah Hicks, the building had served as a hotel known as The Cloisters when Liberace bought it in 1967 and renamed it Casa de Liberace.
Liberace, born Wladziu Valentino Liberace in Wisconsin, died in the house on Feb. 4, 1987, at age 67.
The 8,000-square-foot home has seven bedrooms and 8{ bathrooms on a half acre.
