    Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom has listed for sale his five bedroom, five-bath home at 1639 Fifth St. in Manhattan Beach for the asking price of $2.399 million.

    Odom paid $2.7 million for the home in Oct. 2006. The 4,181-square-foot home was built in 2002.

    Ed Kaminsky of Shorewood Realtors is the listing agent for the home.

    Odom, 30, is in his sixth season as a power forward for the NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers. He joined the team before the 2004-05 season and has appeared in at least 54 games for the club each year since, and averaged 11.3 points and 8.2 rebounds per game during the team's run to the world championship last season. He also averaged 12.3 points per game in the postseason last season, and then signed a four-year, $33 million deal with the club in July.

    Odom joined the Lakers from the Miami Heat in a trade for legendary big man Shaquille O'Neal following the 2003-04 season, when he averaged 17.1 points for the Heat and led them to the postseason. Prior to joining the Heat, he broke into the league over four seasons with the Los Angeles Clippers, who drafted him with the fourth overall pick in the 2000 NBA Draft.

    Odom starred in college at the University of Rhode Island, and is originally from Queens. He married reality television star Khloe Kardashian in September.

    According to BlockShopper.com, there have been 231 home sales in Manhattan Beach during the past 12 months, with a median sales price of $1.4 million.

    why would you sell it at less then you bought it for? That doesn't make any sense. I know the economy is bad, but I don't understand the point of that. I guess he really just wants to get rid of that house.

    Because that is the value of the house based upon the comparable properties around him. Everyone's houses have devalued to a certain extent due to the economy. He probably bought his pad when prices were high. He could wait until the economy picks up again before selling it, but he still has an on going cost obligated to the property which would probably cost more than what he lost on the value of the house.

    Is Odom going to use that money for Chloe Kardashian's upgrade on the wedding ring and try to outdo Kobe's wife's ring?

    NEWLYWED LAKER SELLING MANHATTAN BEACH DIGS

    Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom has listed his Manhattan Beach home for $2,399,000.

    Custom-built in 2002, the Mediterranean has an open floor plan, formal living and dining rooms, a family room with a hand-carved wet bar, three stone fireplaces, an office and a three-car garage. A round window brings light into the top of the two-story foyer. The house has five bedrooms -- some of which Odom used as closet space -- and five bathrooms in 4,181 square feet.

    In the resort-like backyard, a stepped terrace off the back of the house leads to a built-in barbecue area, a gas fire pit and a swimming pool and spa. There are views of downtown L.A., the Hollywood sign and the mountains.

    Odom, who turned 30 on Friday, bought the house in 2006 as a place to entertain his teammates, according to reports at the time. The location is convenient to the Lakers' practice center and the airport.

    He recently married actress Khloé Kardashian, 25. Her "Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami" series, which started in August, is a spinoff of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" (2007-present), on which she costars.

    Odom, who started his NBA career with the Clippers in 1999, came to the Lakers in 2004 after a year with the Miami Heat. In July, he signed a four-year deal with the Lakers worth up to $33 million. Soon he can add reality-show star to his résumé. "Keeping Up With Karashians: The Wedding" will air Sunday on E!

    Ed Kaminsky and Wendy Davis of SportsStar Relocation, Manhattan Beach, have the listing.

    Crawford classic back on market

    Talk-show host Leeza Gibbons has put her longtime Hollywood Hills compound on the market at $6.85 million.

    The 11,137-square-foot Mediterranean is set behind gates on more than an acre of landscaped grounds. It was built in 1926 and was owned in the '40s by actress Joan Crawford. The main house has seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms in three stories.

    Gibbons, 52, remodeled and renovated the home, which has carved moldings, intricate wood-panel ceilings and extensive terraces. A detached guesthouse was added in 2000.

    She hosts the nationally syndicated radio show "Hollywood Confidential" and had her own the daytime talk show "Leeza" from 1994 to 2000.

    The property, which Gibbons has owned since the early '90s, had been on and off the market since 2005. She is selling because she would like to relocate to Beverly Hills, according to her listing agents.

    Drew Mandile and Brooke Knapp of Sotheby's International Realty, Beverly Hills, have the listing.

    Silent star first owned this estate

    A 1929 Spanish-style estate in Bel-Air that traces its Hollywood history back to silent film star Colleen Moore is for sale at $15.95 million or for lease at $39,000 a month.

    The gated compound sits on less than three-quarters of an acre. Three structures contain seven bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, two guest apartments, a projection room, an art studio and a gym in about 13,000 square feet. A two-story entry leads to public rooms, including a formal dining room, den and media room.

    Moore, whose bobbed hairstyle would become a fad, frequently played comic roles on the silver screen. She starred as Annie in "Little Orphant Annie" (1918) while in her teens and gained fame as a young adult for her role as a flapper in "Flaming Youth" (1923).

    As sound films caught on, Moore took a break from acting and frequently entertained at her Bel-Air home. A garden tea for educators was among the events held on the grounds in 1930, according to Los Angeles Times archives. Another reminder of her time in residence is a 1931 lost-and-found ad giving the home's address and stating: "Dog lost, Great Dane, male, light brown, small scar on forehead."

    Moore made the move to talkies and starred opposite Spencer Tracy in "The Power and the Glory" (1933). Her final film was "The Scarlet Letter" (1934). She died in 1988 at age 87.
