Hollywood legend Roy Rogers’ former home is ready for a new owner. Rogers purchased the home in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood of Los Angeles in 1944 during World War II, according to Mansion Global.

“The property has 135 feet of ‘sweeping frontage’ on the avenue,” listing agent Donovan Healy, a Coldwell Banker Luxury Property Specialist, said in a news release. “The property commands both presence and privacy, elevated above the street and set behind gates.”

For the first time in 54 years, the house is on the market with an asking price of $7.2 million.
