Listed recently on January 16, originally at $11,995,000, the buyer must have negotiated down. Messing purchased the home in 2003 from Renée Zellweger; the sale price was not disclosed publicly, but according to the L.A. Times it was close to $7.5 million. Nice job Deb – good sale!The 6,410 square foot home was designed by renowned architect Paul Williams and built in 1937.
It has a total of six bedrooms and six baths, including a large master suite with his and her baths and walk-in closets. It also has an additional wing that can be used as guest quarters or offices.
Outside there is a pool with a cabana and a large lawn, and it is walled and gated for total privacy.
Last summer Messing moved to New York City, where “Smash” is filmed.
She told Ladies Home Journal that the move was “Completely traumatic. I had to find a school for my second-grader. We didn’t have a home, we didn’t have furniture. It was literally moving here with nothing but faith and hope.”
Last year, the 43- year old divorced her husband of 11-years Daniel Zelman and moved on to have a relationship with ‘Smash’ co-star Will Chase.
