With a new hilltop house overlooking Pismo Beach to call home, fitness guru Lou Ferrigno has listed this cute little quasi-storybook property in Santa Monica on the open market for $3.9 million.

What Ferrigno gained is space, inside and out: the house in Central California sits on a lot of over 5.5 acres, features extensive patios and outdoor lounge areas, and interior living space that measures nearly 7,200 square feet.

The home the ‘Ferrigno Fit’ program founder has up for sale is a charming 1920s cottage of nearly 3,500 square feet. The masonry-and-stucco home is currently dressed in a pale shade of yellow, features a white picket arbor gate and a red brick front walk and steps that lead to a recessed entry, and is nestled in a frame of ebullient green. Classic stuff.

The home’s interiors include five bedrooms and five baths. The home is in dire need of a refresh, with a very dated treatment and a tight layout; knocking down a few walls and turning it into a 3-bedroom with a larger master might be a place to start.

The lot is lovely, with a patio, mature trees, privacy landscaping and walls, and a fair amount of space to stretch out opens up a great deal of potential.
