Huge sum: This is how much Matthew Perry’s Los Angeles home where he died was sold for

A year after Matthew Perry's death, his Los Angeles home sold for a huge sum. The Los Angeles residence where Matthew Perry was discovered dead in his hot tub has been sold, as quoted in a report by the Independent.

According to the Independent, Perry's death was initially reported as a drowning before the Los Angeles County medical examiner determined that it was caused by the acute effects of ketamine and the presence of opioids in his system.

Perry originally paid $6 million for the four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in the Pacific Palisades neighbourhood in 2020. The property was constructed in 1965, and he later added an outdoor pool as part of his extensive renovations.


According to the New York Times, Anita Verma-Lallian, a Scottsdale, Arizona-based real estate developer and movie producer, is the home's newest owner.

The deal was officially closed on October 16, nearly a year after the 17 Again actor's death, and Verma-Lallian bought the house as an investment property. Her plans for the 3,500-square-foot house and whether she will be renovating it are currently unknown.

Throughout his career as one of the highest-paid celebrities on television, Perry owned several homes. He also listed a beach house in Malibu for $14.95 million while closing on his Palisades property. After the asking price was reduced twice, the house sold in 2021 for $13.1 million.

In the same year, he sold his 9,300-square-foot penthouse in Los Angeles, which he had bought for $20 million in 2017.

The actor had been receiving ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety, but the additional unsupervised doses were what ultimately killed him, according to a seven-month investigation conducted by LA authorities after Perry's cause of death was made public.
