Malibu real estate ? especially 24-hour guard-gated beachfront?real estate ? comes at premium. Even more so if a celebrity name is tied to it.
Jim Carrey's Malibu home recently hit the market for $13.95 million. Situated in the Malibu Colony, the contemporary home features all the necessary amenities for entertaining: an expansive deck with removable walls, master suite balcony, and rooftop deck with hot tub and mood lighting. Likely, the funnyman hosted some of his nearby celebrity neighbors here.
Carrey bought the home in 2002, shortly after filming a serious role in "The Majestic." Known primarily for his humor roles in movies like "Dumb and Dumber," "Liar Liar," and "Bruce Almighty," Carrey also has a host of dramatic roles under his belt, including starring roles in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" and "The Truman Show."
Besides extensive outdoor entertaining space, Carrey's home has 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms and 2,800 square feet. The open floor plan leads to much of the outdoor space and large picture windows allow sunshine to stream in. Described as "move-in" ready, the private home will no doubt appeal to someone searching for a piece of celebrity-worthy slice of real estate.
Listed by real estate agent Janelle Friedman of Sotheby's, a monthly payment on Carrey's home would be $50,300, assuming a 20 percent down payment on a 30-year-mortgage, according to Zillow's mortgage calculator.

Kenny Rogers wants you to have the key to his house-- after June 26
Zillow
Kenny Rogers' home was custom designed.
?
You've got to know when to hold them. And know when to fold them. That's the gospel according to Kenny Rogers, the Grammy and Country Music Award-winning singer who outlined this strategy in one of his most famous hits, "The Gambler."
Well, Rogers is still out on tour, racking up good reviews for his latest appearances, but his latest real estate move would definitely have to fall in the "Fold 'Em" category.
On June 26, the stunning Athens, Georgia-area home designed and built in 2009 by Rogers on 150 acres of wooded property will go up for an absolute auction.
That means there is no reserve necessary to bid on the 5-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom house at 7356 Brockton Road, which is about 10 minutes outside of Athens. All it takes is a $100,000 certified check to register for your chance to buy the stunningly elegant spread.
Rogers first listed the 5,681-square-foot, Polynesian-inspired home for $3.5 million in January 2012, and reduced the price to $2.85 million in April. By mid-May, however, Rogers decided to take another tactic, enlisting an auction company to take over the sale ? an increasingly more common practice for some high-end properties for which it is difficult to establish market value.
Rogers, who has built and sold other luxury estates, including another massive resort-like estate in the Athens area, says this Georgia special "one of a kind." Must be, since it has its own Kenny Rogers Auction website that indicates previews of the property begin on June 22.

Melissa and Joe Gorga list "smaller" home
Zillow
Melissa Gorga of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" has listed her beah getaway home for sale.
?
Not only are "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Melissa Gorga and her husband, Joe, trying to sell their home in Montville, New Jersey for $3.8 million, it looks like the couple is also looking to divest themselves of their summer pad.
Weighing in at a fraction of the size and price of their massive 9,500-square-foot main home, the tidy little home at 11 Mermaid Road in Toms River?just saw a $15,000 price reduction to make its current list price $520,000.
The 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Toms River house has an outdoor saltwater pool and patio area complete with outdoor kitchen and fireplace. The main point of this place seems to be as near to the water as possible.
According to Zillow's mortgage calculator, a monthly payment on this home would be $1,886 a month, assuming a 20 percent down payment on a 30-year-mortgage.
