*Actor Ving Rhames is putting his two-story Tuscany-style home in Brentwood, Calif. on the market with an asking price of $2,699,000, reports the Los Angeles Times.
The house has five bedrooms and 6 1/2 bathrooms in 4,700 square feet. There is a chef's eat-in kitchen with Viking Professional appliances, granite counters and a direct entrance from the garage. One bedroom is on the ground floor. There are walnut floors, a formal dining room and a fireplace in the master bedroom suite.
In August 2007, a 40-year-old caretaker on the property died of a heart attack in a mauling incident involving the film star's dogs.
Rhames, 49, played the merciless drug dealer Marsellus Wallace in "Pulp Fiction" (1994). He received a Golden Globe award for his performance in HBO's "Don King: Only in America," then famously gave it to fellow nominee Jack Lemmon in 1998, saying: "I feel that being an artist is about giving, and I'd like to give this to you."
