Hancock Park's Infamous "House of Davids" For Sale

The Hancock Park home known as "The House of Davids," which has been dubbed both a neighborhood icon and an eyesore, is up for sale.

Norwood Young moved into the 22-room house on the corner of 3rd Street and South Muirfield Road in the 90s. It became the focus of controversy after Young put up 19 statues of David in the front yard.

"Neighbors were not happy at all with my expression," Young told KTLA.

Over the years, Young has been the target of several lawsuits and discrimination as a result of his lavish decoration choices.

He says he's putting his home on the market for $2.1 million to focus on his music.

"The house took a life of its own that totally superseded my music and after this many years, I realized that if I didn't detach myself from the house it would always be that way," he said.

The 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom mansion includes an in-ground pool, guest house, sauna, steam room and a mega closet.
