Marilyn Monroe's cherished sanctuary in Palm Springs, affectionately dubbed the 'Doll House,' is now available for purchase at $3.3 million. This iconic residence, located in the Vista Las Palmas neighborhood, was a personal retreat for the star during the 1960s.

It represents a significant piece of both American architectural history and Hollywood provenance, embodying the essence of Palm Springs Midcentury Modern design.
Monroe, who began her career as a pin-up model in the 1940s, became a major film star with roles in classics like "The Seven Year Itch." Her final film was "The Misfits" in 1961, and she passed away the following year at age 36.

The 2022 film "Blonde," starring Ana de Armas, brought her story to a new generation, highlighting the unique challenge of capturing Monroe's iconic persona.
