Widow lists compound, house

The widow of author Sidney Sheldon has listed their Palm Springs, Calif., compound for $7.9 million, plus a house across the street for $4 million. The Oscar-winning screenwriter, best-selling novelist and creator of TV's "I Dream of Jeannie" died a year ago at the age of 89.

Sheldon and his wife, Alexandra, owned a total of four houses in the Old Las Palmas neighborhood. Three adjacent houses, on two acres, measure a combined 18,000 interior square feet. The Sheldons lived in a mid-century modernist seven-bedroom home bought in 1977 and also owned a six-bedroom Mediterranean-style guest house. A four-bedroom home used for entertaining with a glass-enclosed indoor pool and a poolside kitchen can be bought separately for $1.45 million. The compound has two other pools.

The 5,800-square-foot home across the street, on 0.8 acre, also has a pool. Brook Ashley, Scott Palermo and Jim Sanak, all of Prudential California Realty's Estates division, have the listings.

Everett offers Florida condo

Actor Rupert Everett has listed his Miami Beach pied-a-terre for $1.15 million. The British-born performer paid $670,000 for the two-bedroom, two-bath condo in 2004.

On Ocean Drive in South Beach, within walking distance of the area's restaurants and nightclubs, the 1,350-square-foot apartment, on the seventh floor, has an ocean view and a 500-square-foot balcony.

Everett, 48, who also owns homes in London, Paris and New York, is selling because he's spending more time in Europe, according to Michael Valdes, of Sol Sotheby's International Realty, who shares the listing with his colleague Jorge Uribe.
