Mel Gibson’s Malibu home for sale

Mel Gibson is selling off the California home he once shared with his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

The Braveheart star has hit headlines in recent weeks amid a string of lurid allegations about his turbulent romance with the Russian singer, mother of his young daughter Lucia, which ended in April.

Tape recordings have been released which purportedly feature Gibson hurling abuse and vile threats at his former lover during phone calls. And now the home the former couple once shared, Lavender Hill Farm in Malibu, California, is up for sale.

This lovely home has, through no fault of its own, been mentioned several times by Mel in the released phone call tapes. Here’s quick list of Lavendar Hill Farm’s cameos:

Tape1. When Mel graciously offered to let Oksana raise their child there: “Stay in the f*cking house. I’m not giving it to you, but I’ll let you stay there. OK? And I will take care of my child, but I don’t want you anymore.”

Tape2. When Mel tried to plan a visit to his girlfriend and baby daughter: “Stay on this phone and don’t hang up on me, I can, I have plenty of energy to drive over there. You understand me?”

Tape3. When Mel discussed using Oksana as fertilizer for the grounds: “I’m threatening, I’ll put you in a f*cking rose garden, you c*nt. You understand that? ‘Cause I’m capable of it.”

Tape4. When Mel felt distraught enough to destroy it: “I deserve to be bl*wn, first, before the f*cking Jacuzzi! OK? I’ll burn the godd*mn house down, but bl*w me first!”

Gibson’s expansive property, which is  a very splendid one, features six bedrooms and six bathrooms, fruit orchards, a tennis court and a pool, has been put on the market for $14.5 million.The news comes just weeks after Gibson finally sold his Connecticut estate, which spent three years on the property market before a buyer was found.
