The former home of iconic British actor and playwright NOEL COWARD is up for sale.

But Coward's star-studded home is now boasting an asking price of GBP500,000 ($975,000). A spokesperson for the sellers says, "The buyer will even be able to sleep in Coward's bed." Coward died of a heart attack in Jamaica in 1973, aged 73.
