Longtime Westlake Village home of entertainer Mickey Rooney seeks $2.9 million

"Built for the late actor in 1976, the property looks a bit different thanks to a complete remodel four years ago. The result is a more contemporary feel, both inside and out. Within 3,221 square feet of interior are a two-story entry, a bright open floor plan with a formal dining room, four bedrooms and four bathrooms."

"The main area offers dark hardwood floors and a center-island kitchen with stone countertops. A combination of clerestory windows, sliding glass doors and a skylight brighten the living spaces. Outside, an expansive patio, as well as a second-story balcony, take advantage of the home's waterfront spot on Westlake Lake."

"Rooney's career stretched from the 1930s to shortly before his death in 2014. He starred in a bevy of plays and silent films, with memorable roles in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' (1935), 'Babes in Arms' (1939) and 'Black Stallion' (1979)."
