Fitness TV star and author Jillian Michaels has listed her home in Malibu for a second time and at a second price, leaving many outlets no other choice but to say she's "working out" a new deal for the house. This time around, she's asking for $8.795 million, a small but noticeable increase of $20,000 over the price from the first time she tried to sell the house about two years back.
Michaels's home was built in 1990, a three-story minimalist-modern structure with plenty of glass and a floating staircase in steel and glass continuing the vibe inside. The house spreads three bedrooms and four bathrooms across 4,300 square feet of living space, with an office and two ocean-view balconies thrown in.
One interesting technological feature of the house has to be its "retractable walls of glass that open to expansive decking," according to the Los Angeles Times. Another view of the Pacific can be found in the dining area which adjoins the kitchen. The view comes courtesy of the home's prime location on Las Flores Beach in Malibu.
Michaels reportedly purchased the house almost ten years ago, paying $6.625 million, so the new listing price represents a small but not overwhelming profit for the The Doctors star, if and when she finds a buyer that accepts her asking price. Her ownership of the house roughly coincides with her celebrity as an infomercial fixture and popular fitness-themed reality shows like The Biggest Loser and her own Losing It With Julian, but now it seems she's looking to get out of there and take the next step. Over the course of her career, she has also authored or co-authored more than a dozen books on health, fitness, and exercise.
