Chris Pratt and Anna Faris Selling Their Former Love Nest in the Hollywood Hills

Jason LaVeris/FilmMagic

Ah, 2014. It was a simpler time of happy couples and viral stunts. Remember the ice bucket challenge?

Four years ago, adorable duo Anna Faris and Chris Pratt invited us into the backyard of their lovely Mediterranean-style mansion in the Hollywood Hills to watch Pratt take the Ice Bucket Challenge.

First, the actor drank libations with the word “ice” in their names, until he was suddenly “surprised” by his then-wife, who poured a bucket of ice water on his head from the master bedroom balcony above.

Those were happier times for the couple. Faris and Pratt, who finalized their divorce this month, had purchased the L.A. home for $3.3 million in 2013. And recently, they put the glamorous property on the market for $5 million.

What makes the property so glamorous? Well, the lighted tennis court accompanied by an open-air clubhouse housing a professional gym is one example.

The spacious master suite also falls into the glam category. It features a fireplace, two custom walk-in closets, a luxe bathroom with steam room and jetted tub, and the aforementioned balcony.

The house also has a backyard ideal for relaxation thanks to the saltwater pool and spa. You can dine by the outdoor fireplace, hopefully on a gourmet repast prepared in the outdoor kitchen with built-in barbecue.

The 4,710-square-foot home has four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The lot—which is gated and includes a palm tree–lined drive and a motor court with a fountain—measures almost two-thirds of an acre.

The 40-year-old house has a modern feel and doesn’t look dated in the slightest. Other features worth noting? Vaulted and wood-beamed ceilings, a chef’s kitchen, and an oak-paneled den with an elegant bar.

American Homeownership Increases Again as Housing Market Looks for Balance

iStock

More Americans became homeowners in the summer months, fresh evidence of a housing market that’s finding some stability after several rocky years.

The national homeownership rate was 64.4% in the third quarter, the Census Bureau said Tuesday. That’s a half-percentage point higher than a year ago.

A look at the rate of homeownership since 2004.

Census Bureau/Haver Analytics

After touching an all-time high of 69.1% in 2004 as the housing bubble inflated, the homeownership rate bottomed out at 62.9% in 2016 as waves of Americans lost their homes or sold under duress. At the same time, many Americans who would ordinarily become buyers were locked out of the market by stringent lending rules, a lack of affordable inventory and a challenging economic backdrop.

All that has made the post-crisis housing market not just less accessible, but less dynamic. It’s possible the moderation in home prices over the course of 2018, which some analysts believe came from would-be buyers pushing back against hefty price gains, helped many of them finally become owners.

The homeownership rate can be controversial. Some analysts believe that government policies that helped enable ownership more broadly were responsible for the housing crisis, although many others believe there’s blame to go around.

Still, the meager recovery to this point puts the homeownership rate only back to 1995 levels, well before the run-up to the bubble. That suggests it may be possible for many more Americans to become owners, if housing market conditions ease further. The vacancy rate for owners was just 1.5% for the second month in a row, tighter than the 1.6% it averaged throughout 2017.

10 Terrifying Toilets That’ll Scare Your Pants Off

Toilets are funny things. Toilet humor exists because, let’s face it, bodily functions are embarrassing and therefore hilarious. And yes, while terrifying things can happen on a toilet after a Taco Bell run, the toilet is generally not a place where true terror lurks.

But a new Twitter account, “Toilets With Threatening Auras,” begs to differ.

Launched this summer as a quirky riff on toilets, the account now boasts hundreds of thousands of followers, all gathering to share and view pics of porcelain thrones that send chills up our spines.

Just how many terrifying toilets are out there? And, god forbid, might your own toilet be scary, too? In case you want to see just how spooky a commode can be, check out a few choice examples below, which also contain some interesting lessons on how to not decorate your loo.

No netherworld lighting We’ve heard of overheard lighting but not inner bowl lighting.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Things are supposed to go into a toilet and then get flushed away, never to be seen again. Nothing is supposed to come out of the toilet bowl. Especially not Satan’s night light. So stay far away from this light, Carol Anne!

No random sharp objects Sit with caution.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Razors have a place in a bathroom, sure. They belong inside a holder in the shower or a medicine cabinet. They are not supposed to be sealed into a toilet seat. And barbed wire really shouldn’t be in your bathroom at all, much less embedded in your toilet.

Toilets also shouldn’t have teeth File this under “highly disturbing.”

scarytoilet/Twitter

We can only hope this is a digitally altered image meant to scare the bejesus out of us—because who wants to confront a primal scream in the john? But if it’s not, remember to stick to regular old pipes for your plumbing needs.

No heads of state in the head This ain’t exactly the Oval Office.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Bathrooms are places where things that aren’t always pretty happen on the regular. As such, you don’t need a past president eyeing your every move.

No vortexes to other dimensions Limit swirling to flushing water in the toilet bowl.

scarytoilet/Twitter

While it’s unclear whether this is digital manipulation at work or a truly trippy floor treatment, it’s clear this is bad bathroom juju. Most people like to relax and maybe flip through a magazine in the bathroom. They do not want to contemplate the meaningless of life brought on by staring into a wormhole to the underworld.

No cute overloads Um, this is not a litter box.

scarytoilet/Twitter

At first glance, this may look like an innocent Hello Kitty obsession on display in a pink powder room. Think again! Anyone who has this many disembodied cat heads in such a small space is clearly not of sound mind. (And haven’t you ever noticed Hello Kitty doesn’t have a mouth? That’s so she can’t scream!)

Send out the clowns Even Bozo the Clown would get weirded out in here.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Evil clowns take center stage as the creepy monsters in movies such as “It” for good reason. And they usually don’t take lead roles as bathroom decor for similar reasons: Do you really want to see gruesome, giant red mouths twisted in unnatural smiles and blank eyes staring as you relieve yourself?  Didn’t think so.

There is such a thing as too much toilet paper Someone went shopping at Costco.

scarytoilet/Twitter

One of life’s great annoyances is running out of toilet paper while still sitting on the bowl. But there is such a thing as too much bath tissue—and this is not what “TP-ing” a house means.

No fake peeping, please Spying has no place in the privy.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Hanging a window and then putting pictures in the panes of people seemingly watching you use the toilet? We know that’s some weird attempt at humor, but we aren’t laughing. ‘Nuf said.

No gallows humor Use this if you dare.

scarytoilet/Twitter

Most people don’t have urinals at home. But this is so spooky that, public or not, we had to showcase it anyway. Because a “half-bath” is not supposed to mean that when you go inside you run the risk of getting something chopped in half.

Home Prices Continue to Lose Momentum

Sandy Huffaker/Getty Images

Annual home-price gains fell below 6% for the first time in a year in August, another sign that the slowdown in the housing market is becoming widespread and is likely to persist in the months to come.

The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller National Home Price Index, which measures average home prices in major metropolitan areas across the nation, rose 5.8% in the year ending in August, down from a 6% year-over-year increase reported in July.

Price gains accelerated for most of the last two years, growing significantly faster than both incomes and inflation. August marked the fifth straight month of decelerating price gains, as interest rates have risen and inventory in some markets has been growing.

Home buyers “must be breathing a collective sigh of relief that home price growth finally has slowed.” said Skylar Olsen, director of economic research and outreach. Ms. Olsen said the slowing appreciation “is a sign that fierce competition is dying down.”

The Case-Shiller 10-city index gained 5.1% over the year, down significantly for the second straight month from 5.5% the prior month. The 20-city index gained 5.5%, down from 5.9% the previous month.

Fourteen out of 20 cities are showing slower price growth than a year earlier.

Las Vegas had the fastest home price growth in the country for the third straight month, at 13.9%, followed by San Francisco, where prices grew 10.6%. Seattle, where realtors have reported a significant pullback in buyer demand in recent months, fell to third place with a 9.6% annual gain in prices.

David Blitzer, managing director at S&P Dow Jones Indices, said that even though there is a pullback in the housing market there are no signs that the current weakness will become a repeat of the crisis in 2008 because mortgage default rates remain low. “Without a collapse in housing finance like the one seen 12 years ago, a crash in home prices is unlikely,” he said.

More than five years of rapidly rising prices, combined with higher mortgage rates are making homes increasingly unaffordable for buyers. Rates for a 30-year mortgage averaged 4.86% last week, up nearly a full percentage point from the beginning of the year, Freddie Mac said last Thursday. Because Case-Shiller home-price data lags behind by a couple of months, it doesn’t yet reflect the most recent run-up in rates.

“Coupled with mortgage rate increases that picked up steam in September, higher prices are stifling home sales as more buyers are priced out of the market,” said Danielle Hale, chief economist for Realtor.com.

Most sectors of the housing market are slowing, including new home sales and housing starts. Sales of previously owned U.S. homes fell 3.4% in September from the previous month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.15 million, the National Association of Realtors said Friday.

Fewer people are attending open houses and inventory levels are rising, prompting Lawrence Yun, the group’s chief economist, to acknowledge there has been a “clear shift” in the market.

Weeks After Her Death, Aretha Franklin’s Suburban Michigan Home Is Listed for $800K

Katherine Frey/The Washington Post via Getty Images

Just weeks after the Queen of Soul was laid to rest, her home in suburban Detroit has come on the market. Aretha Franklin‘s home in Michigan can be yours for just $800,000—a relative bargain for a slice of American music history.

Emptied of its contents, and with very little trace of its famous owner, the home doesn’t exactly have the drama you’d associate with the talented diva. But rest assured, this property does hit all the right notes.

Located in the tony suburb of Bloomfield Township, MI—recently ranked as the most expensive ZIP code in the state—the Colonial-style home has five bedrooms, 6.5 baths, and more than 4,100 square feet.

The custom estate was built in 1990 and sits on a lot overlooking the gated community’s lap pool and two charming ponds.

But without a doubt, the most appealing element of this home is its pedigree.

It’s not hard to imagine Aretha strutting across the bridge over the foyer, soothing her vocal cords in the home’s sauna, or cooking for her friends and family in the kitchen. In addition to her obvious vocal talents, the Queen of Soul was known as a great home cook, famous for her ham, peach cobbler, fried chicken, and macaroni and cheese.

Franklin died Aug. 16 at the age of 76, surrounded by loved ones in her waterfront Detroit condo. In addition to the condo and this sprawling home, Franklin also owned two properties in the Detroit suburb of Highland Park. Her entire estate—including her real estate—was passed on to her four sons.

L.A. House Where Mac Miller Died From Apparent Overdose for Rent Asking $10,000 Per Month

The house where Mac Miller died from an apparent drug overdose is available for rent.

Listed for $9,595 per month through Keller Williams Realty, the 3,156-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is located in Studio City, Calif.

According to a California Civil Code, realtors must disclose to anyone buying or renting a property that someone has died there within three years of a transaction.

On Sept. 7, authorities rushed to the home, Miller, 26, was renting, but found him unresponsive. A source later told PEOPLE Miller was deceased before authorities arrived and he couldn’t be revived when they got there. Paramedics never transported the rapper to a hospital, PEOPLE confirms.

Miller’s home was reportedly “swept clean,” so that there would be no evidence of drug use, according to a law enforcement source that spoke to TMZ, which also first reported the rental listing. The publication reported that only a small amount of white powder was found in his home when police searched for evidence.

An autopsy took place three days after Miller’s death, PEOPLE confirms.

“The autopsy was completed and a cause of death has been deferred pending additional tests. His body has been released,” Los Angeles County coroner’s spokeswoman Sarah Ardalani said.

Laboratory test results could take weeks or months to determine an official cause of death, according to Ardalani.

According to court papers obtained by The Blast, the late musician left his entire estate to his parents,

Miller had been open about his struggles with sobriety and had revealed he battled depression throughout his life.

He had attempted to turn his life around in recent months, but in May, the rapper was arrested for a DUI, less than a week after his split from Ariana Grande following two years of dating.

“If a bunch of people think I am a huge drug addict, OK. Cool. What can I really do? Go talk to all those people and be like ‘Naw man, it’s really not that simple?’”he told Rolling Stone in August. “Have I done drugs? Yeah. But am I a drug addict? No.”

On Oct. 2, Miller’s parents and brother, along with his management team, announced “Mac Miller: A Celebration of Life,” a benefit concert on Oct. 31 that not only pays tribute to the rapper, but also launches a new charity, The Mac Miller Circles Fund (MMCF).

“The support we’ve experienced is evident in this amazing line-up and is a testament to Malcolm’s incredible life,” Miller’s mother, Karen Meyers, said in a statement. “His father, brother and I are beyond thankful to everyone who is working to make this concert happen along with every fan and every friend for continuing to support Malcolm and his vision. He was a caring, loving human with a smile that could light up the sky and a soul that was out to make the world a kinder place and the MMCF will continue to do just that.”

Countdown: The hottest local housing markets so far in 2018

Experts have been predicting a slowdown in the red-hot housing market for quite a while, and some of the data could be read as starting to point in that direction. Take this for example: So far in 2018, it took longer for homes to sell in 34 of 46 communities tracked by Columbus Realtors compared with the same period last year. And in number of homes sold, 30 of the neighborhoods, cities or school districts saw drops from 2017. Are these actually signs the cool-down phase has hit? Or just evidence…

Disney-Inspired Home With Mickey Mouse Pool Makes a Splash as Week’s Most Popular Home

realtor.com

A theme-park style home in Florida complete with a custom pool in the shape of Mickey Mouse, a water-park slide, and a go-kart track wowed crowds across the country. The playful residence filled with references to animated Disney characters is the most popular home of the week on realtor.com®.

Located a little over an hour away from Walt Disney World in Orlando, this mouse house has already gotten a nibble from another fan. After just over a week on the market, the home is already under offer.

This week’s runner-up is a spooky Georgia home built in 1883. It was restored, but suffered a major setback when a 2001 fire caused smoke and water damage. It’s been empty ever since and is the epitome of a house you’d best avoid on Halloween.

Other cool homes generating clicks this week include a private island in Connecticut asking a cool $120 million, a pricey urban estate in the Windy City, and one of the oldest homes in Salem, MA.

We believe you’ll find all of this week’s most popular properties equally bewitching …

10. 19 Great Island Rd, Darien, CT

Price: $120 million
Why it’s here: This 63-acre private island first came on the market in 2016 for $175 million. This year, the price was sliced by over $50 million, yet it’s still the most expensive listing in the Nutmeg State. Connected by a land bridge, the acreage features a main house, 19th-century farmhouse, and an equestrian center with an 18-stall stable, plus a beach and deepwater dock.

Darien, CT

9. 2133 Northland Ave, Lakewood, OH

Price: $149,900
Why it’s here: If you love a good DIY project, this home is for you. A “handyman special,” the four-bedroom Colonial from 1923 is being sold as is. While it’ll take work, the upside is buying into a great location in a beautiful neighborhood. The listing details boldly claim the right renovation could triple the home’s value.

Lakewood, OH

8. 952 Pinkerton Ct, Brentwood, TN

Price: $649,900
Why it’s here: The “immaculate” 4,300-square-foot brick house features an open floor plan, “wonderful views,” and a private, level backyard with a pool. Updates throughout include hardwood floors on the main level, new light fixtures, and a gourmet kitchen. The handsome home has already attracted a buyer and is under contract after just a week on the market.

Brentwood, TN

5. 1932 N Burling St, Chicago, IL

Price: $50 million
Why it’s here: This opulent Lincoln Park estate takes up eight city lots and measures in at a massive 25,000 square feet.  The park-like manicured grounds are filled with fountains, gardens, and a reflecting pool. On the market since 2016, the land was purchased by United Automobile Insurance Co. Chairman and CEO Richard Parrillo and his wife, Michaela, who acquired the land in 2005 for $12.5 million. The couple have since downsized, and the pricey estate with six beds and 10 baths is still up for grabs.

Chicago, IL

4. 24600 John Colter Rd, Hidden Hills, CA

Price: $4,299,000
Why it’s here: Although the price would suggest otherwise, this listing is being marketed as a teardown. Or, in other words, an opportunity to “create or develop a prodigious estate sited on almost 3 acres.” The original property leaves the buyer a choice to remodel or build anew.

Hidden Hills, CA

3. 1 Daniels St, Salem, MA

Price: $610,000
Why it’s here: It’s an enchanting slice of Salem history. Built in 1667 (!) for shipwright Stephen Daniels, the Daniels House is one of the town’s oldest residences. Not surprisingly, it needs some work. However, the home does features awesome period details like multiple fireplaces, wide pine floors, and exposed beams.

Salem, MA

2. 498 S Main St, Madison, GA

Price: $449,000
Why it’s here: Here’s a chance to bring back a once-grand home that now gives us the creeps. The Foster-Thomason-Miller House, built in 1883, was completely restored in 1986 and garnered a preservation award. Damaged by a fire in 2001, the home now needs yet another major rehab. The uninhabited space was featured as part of our spookiest homes story, but we hope the home has a happy ending.

Madison, GA

1.4236 Hield Rd NW, Palm Bay, FL

Price: $849,000
Why it’s here: You can’t resist a home with a pool shaped like Mickey Mouse’s head. And neither could the internet, which likely means the sellers are some of the happiest people on earth.

The front yard includes a Mickey-shaped fountain and Disney characters pop up all over the property. Donald Duck’s in the kitchen. Goofy, Mickey, Minnie, and even Winnie-the Pooh and friends make appearances on murals in various rooms and hallways, and on doors. It’s like living in Disney World, without the lines.

The five-bedroom abode sits on 8 acres, and features an outdoor area with a customized pool that includes a foot bridge, rock waterfall, and a slide, plus a covered dining area. There’s a large barn, a go-kart track, and a lake with a water park-style slide.

There’s more. See if you can spot the Mickey Mouse heads throughout the sun-filled residence, which includes a detached guest suite, media room, and porch and lanai areas.

The fun-filled property already has a contingent offer, which likely means a Disney fan leapt at the opportunity to make this mouse house their very own.
