When you discover that this Mediterranean villa, tucked up in L.A<\/a>.\u2019s posh Beverly Glen Circle, once belonged to iconic sex symbol Raquel Welch<\/strong>, you can\u2019t help but envision her in that famous doe-skin bikini from \u201cOne Million Years B.C.\u201d Out by the pool, perhaps?<\/p>\n

Now you have the opportunity to strike the same pose there yourself, as the 5,118-square-foot hillside home is on the market for $3,950,000.<\/p>\n

Welch bought the place for $2.5 million in 2009 and lived in its serene, gated environs until she died in February 2023, at age 82.<\/p>\n

The 8,554-square-foot, terraced grounds have been meticulously maintained and include box hedges, green lawns, citrus trees, and many mature plantings native to Southern California. Although the property has the stately appearance of having existed for generations, it was built in 1998.<\/p>\n
