NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Sept. 1 (UPI) -- Well, Pilgrim, if you want to buy John Wayne's home in Orange County, Calif., it'll cost you a cool $2.2 million.
Aside from living in the house where Wayne played cards and other games, any buyer would have the Duke's name included in the title history of 14 Rue Grand Ducal, a 4,448-square foot manse off the 4th tee of a private golf course in Newport Beach, The Orange County Register reported Wednesday.
Realtor Linda Stearns said Wayne did some remodeling on the house, including expanding the master bedroom, installing dark hardwood floors and designing a custom art piece.
"He put his own touches in it," Stearns says.
The house had two other owners since then Wayne owned it and was last sold in 1998 for $895,000, the Register said.
The two-story home includes an open living room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a marble fireplace, a recently remodeled kitchen and a butler's pantry with a "secret" area, the listing indicated. Upstairs is a balcony and two bedroom suites with spa baths.
Outside, gardens surround the pool, spa and gazebo, making the home "very private," Stearns said.
