For the first time in 50 years, a midcentury Beverly Hills gem once owned by Nancy Sinatra has landed on the market for $2.95 million, per The Hollywood Reporter. The low-slung white structure was built in 1964 and boasts plenty of lovable mod features still intact from the “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” singer’s heyday, including the original kitchen, a white brick floating hearth fireplace with wraparound seating, and a martini bar left practically unchanged from when Sinatra—the eldest child of Frank Sinatra—lived there.
The gated quarter-acre property hosts a motor court that was featured in the video for Sinatra’s 1967 song “I Gotta Get Out of this Town,” a two-car garage, and an angular swimming pool out back with views of the surrounding canyon, in addition to the main house—a four-bedroom, four-bathroom abode spanning 2,785 square feet.
Following the “Sugar Town” singer’s tenure at the residence, film director Sobey Martin briefly lived there until selling it in 1973 to the parents of current owner Orly Frank, according to Robb Report. Nancy was reportedly quite emotionally attached to the home and stayed in touch with its new inhabitants after parting ways with the property. “She came up and visited, and she sent some handwritten notes to my parents,” Frank, who has called the property home since she was in high school, told The Hollywood Reporter. “She loved the house.”

The dwelling still looks remarkably similar to how it did when Nancy was photographed inside it in the ’60s. In one photo, the musician sits perched on a sofa in the airy living room, which was decorated with lots of butter yellow, right down to the shag carpeting. “Yellow was [Nancy’s] favorite color, and my mom sort of adopted the same yellow curtains and yellow built-in seating around the fireplace,” Frank said, noting that she and her children have since opted to incorporate yellow into all of their homes, inspired by Sinatra’s affinity for the sunny hue.
