Look at That View! See Inside Betty White's Breathtaking Carmel-by-the-Sea Home
The 'Golden Girls' star's favorite home sold after just two weeks on the market.
Betty White fans were outraged when the star's publicist shared on Instagram that her home in the posh Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles had been demolished, days before the one-year anniversary of her death.
Betty White died just a few weeks short of her 100th birthday on Dec. 31, 2021, at her Brentwood home.
We're all sad to see White's torn down but it was just one of The Golden Girls star's homes. Her favorite place to call home was a rustic-modern Carmel-by-the-Sea beach house, which she built with her husband, Allen Ludden, in 1978. It was listed for sale in early April, and according to toptenrealestate.com, the asking price was $7.95 million. Architectural Digest reports that the house sold two weeks later for $10.775 million—nearly $3 million above asking price.
As we remember our favorite Golden Girl, take a look back at her favorite home.
As gorgeous as the home is, the most striking feature is the view of the Pacific Ocean. With wall-to-wall windows, the rooms look out at the Point Lobos Nature Reserve, Ribera Beach and Monastery Beach.
