The public is once more invited to visit the home of the late entertainment legend Jerry Lewis. Just be ready to offer at least a million bucks, which is actually a comparatively low bid for this place. The Lewis dwelling in the historic Scotch 80’s neighborhood is up for sale at an offer presentation and open house from 2 to 4 p.
m. June 29. Those who want to attend and bid at the event, at the home just off Charleston Boulevard and Shadow Lane, must pre-qualify or provide a proof of funds when submitting an offer.
The seller does have an undisclosed reserve price, and has the right to reject any offer that doesn’t meet that price. The formal opening bid is set at $999,999. Jerry Lewis bought the property in 1982 as his primary residence until his death in August 2017.
His widow, Sam Lewis; and daughter Danielle Lewis moved out in the summer of 2018 as the family auctioned almost all of Lewis’ personal items. None of Lewis’ belongings remain in the house or on the property. Sam Lewis said Saturday she had no comment about her former home.
She learned of the latest development on a phone chat, saying, “Well, that’s news to me.” This has been her consistent response to any news about the house since she vacated the property. Nate Strager of Luxury Estates International is the listing agent, working on behalf of owner Brumbies Capital Inc.
, a private lending company out of Australia. That company purchased the home from foreclosure company Nevada Trust Deed Service.
