The LA Times’ Hot Property reports that Leonardo DiCaprio has listed one of his Malibu properties for sale at $8,999,000. Leo, who turned 34 this month, has listed a contemporary home that sits on the bluffs above the Pacific. A stairway leads to the beach cove below. The main house has two beds and two baths in 2,374 square feet. The master bathroom has marble fixtures and a steam shower. A separate guesthouse has two one-bedroom suites. There is a four-car garage and a large grassy area, and—no surprise to DiCaprio followers—the property is private. DiCaprio, who captured the public’s attention playing Jack Dawson in “Titanic” (1997), also starred in “Romeo & Juliet” (1996), “Catch Me if You Can” (2002), “Gangs of New York” (2002), and “Blood Diamond” (2006). He stars in “Body of Lies” (2008) and the upcoming holiday release of “Revolutionary Road,” which again teams him with Kate Winslet, his “Titanic” costar. The Sam Mendes (“American Beauty” and “Road to Perdition” and husband of Winslet) directed film, based on Richard Yates’ celebrated novel about a destructive marriage dealing with fantasy and insecurity amidst suburban angst and emptiness, is already being called a serious Oscar contender. Leomania has propelled DiCaprio to the status of fifth-highest-paid actor in Hollywood this year, according to Forbes magazine, and Time magazine named him one of the “most influential” people in the world. But news accounts say DiCaprio is weary of the constant fan clamor and paparazzi and would welcome some peace.
