The Hollywood Hills home is listed for $17,995,000, according to Zillow. This is also the site where Murphy was found collapsed on December 20, 2009. The Clueless actress was then taken to Cedars-Sinai hospital where she died the same day.
At the time, Murphy was found to have died from a combination of pneumonia, anemia and prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
Murphy’s husband, Simon Monjack, was found dead on the same property 5 months after his wife’s death. He was 40 years old. The Los Angeles Coroner announced that Monjack died of similar causes to Murphy.
On the cool morning of December 20, 2009, actress Brittany Murphy collapsed unconscious in the primary bathroom of her Hollywood Hills home, where she lived with her mother, Sharon Murphy, and husband of two years, Simon Monjack. “My daughter is dead,” her mother sobbed in the disturbing 911 call. “She was dizzy, she couldn’t walk (…)
On the home’s real estate listing, it is described as “an architectural gem, nestled within a desirable niche of celebrity homes.” The listing also explains that the house “has undergone a complete metamorphosis, emerging as a testament to luxurious living and meticulous craftsmanship.”
The home, built in 1997, features 6 beds and 9 baths within 9,400 square feet. When the Murphys bought the home, they weren’t the first celebrities to live within its walls.
The couple bought the home from Spears, a pop star and music icon, in 2003 for $3.85 million.
During her time living in the home, the “Toxic” singer claimed she had supernatural experiences there.

In a 2021 episode of the podcast “We Need To Talk About Britney”, her former make-up artist Julianne Kaye described her experience with the singer.
“(Spears) had that place up on Sunset Plaza – and I’m going to say, this is really weird … he’s calling me … I had my friend do a reiki healing on her,” he said Kaye at the time. “He had come up; She probably had a crazy party weekend and needed to relax. He left, and she swears to God that he opened some spirit portal or something, and these evil spirits came in… and they were trying to, like, push her down the stairs or something crazy.”
Kaye said that after that experience, Spears never came back to the home, and instead stayed at the Casa Del Mar hotel.
“She’s going, ‘I know you’re going to think I’m crazy. I’m not crazy. I know what I saw. I know what I felt,’” Kaye added.
It was also reported that Murphy felt uneasy about the property. In a 2010 interview with The Hollywood ReporterMonjack detailed the actress’ discomfort with home.
“She absolutely hated the Rising Glen house,” Monjack told the outlet. “Every time we drove up Sunset, Brit would say, ‘Please, can we stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel?’ I’d say: ‘Honey, you have to be realistic. We have our house, a 10,000 square foot home. We’re going to stay in it.’”
