The last few years haven’t been kind to the career of Academy Award nominee Eddie Murphy (he was nominated for his role in Dream Girls), and neither has the real estate market. The mega-millionaire star of classic comedies like Trading Places and Coming To America spent the first ten years of his career dominating the comedy scene in both film and in stand-up, but he’s spent the last twenty-something years making horrible family-friendly comedies like The Nutty Professor. During his heyday, Murphy purchased a 10,000 square foot mansion in Englewood, New Jersey for $3.5 million. He then added an additional 15,000 square feet to the home and by the time he decided to sell it in 2005 it was appraised around $30 million. However, no one really wants a house that big and expensive, and Murphy just sold it for $18 million under his asking price. For $12 million, the buyer gets eight bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, four half bathrooms, a bowling alley, a racquetball court, a child’s gym, a recording studio, a huge guest house, and thirty-two rooms in total. The Tower Heist star couldn’t be reached for comment on the sale, as he was busy making a movie that involves a fat-suit and/or ridiculously cliched premise.
