Goodbye McDreamhouse!

Goodbye McDreamhouse! Patrick Dempsey and wife Jillian Fink list their Malibu home for $14.5 million after divorce announcement


There's no doubt Patrick Dempsey's life has changed dramatically in the last few months after his long-running character Derek 'McDreamy' Shepherd was suddenly killed-off Grey's Anatomy.
And after announcing their divorce in January, the actor and wife Jillian Fink have taken the next step and put their stunning Malibu bolthole on the market.
Dempsey and Fink are listing their home at $14.5 million after buying the property in 2009 for $7 million and completely renovating it.

The 5,500 sq ft home is nestled in the Malibu mountains on 3.3 acres of land and was designed by Frank Gehry as both a studio and residence for abstract painter Ron Davis in 1972.
Dempsey told the Architectural Digest last year: 'We were looking for a little land and space, and a house with some architectural significance.
'The exterior's simplicity appealed to me, and the inside felt very expansive and calming. Everywhere you looked there was something visually pleasing.'

The living areas were designed by Estee Stanley, who according to the publication gave 'coziness and livability to the idiosyncratic interior spaces'.
The home includes a pool, an al fresco kitchen, a small farm, and studio space as well as lots of greenery and areas for entertaining.
Wooden floors made of repurposed scaffolding give the residence an earthy feel and high ceilings, large windows and white painted walls ensure it's incredibly light and airy.
Fink filed for divorce in January after 15 years of marriage to the 49-year-old actor.

Amid rumours of a bust-up with creator Shonda Rhimes the actor spoke out about his character's untimely ending after reportedly signing up for two more years.
He told Entertainment Weekly: 'It just sort of unfolded in a very organic way. I don’t remember the date. It was not in the fall. Maybe February or March. It happened very quickly.'  
He added: 'It really was something that was kind of surprising that unfolded, and it just naturally came to be. Which was pretty good. I like the way it has all played out.'
