There’s nothing like scandal to sell a house. At least that’s what one real estate broker apparently thinks.
The broker listing Whitney Houston’s Mendham Township, NJ, home for $1.75 million is mentioning the singer’s death in an ad for house on CarProperty.com, whose tagline is “where the garage matters.”
WHITNEY’S FUNERAL SET FOR NEWARK CHURCH
“With the recent passing of Whitney Houston in Beverly Hills, Calif., the day before the 2012 Grammy Awards show, it is with a heavy heart that we remind you of this great mansion,” the ad says. “Whitney contacted us directly a few years ago about selling her house and even though she had it listed with various agents in New Jersey, we have kept the word out for her to car collectors, enthusiasts and the entertainment world.”
Along with details such as “soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and circular-themed interior spaces” there’s also this:
“This house was also the scene of the activity that brought down this incredible musical diva over a 15-year cycle. The mansion was also used in the filming of a 2005 reality show in which she and her ex-husband appeared at the pinnacle of Whitney Houston’s fall from musical power and grace.
With all of this incredible star studded history, if you owned this house you would always have these incredible stories to go with it. A great conversation piece for anyone.”
