Bob Saget’s Los Angeles home is back on the market after receiving a $770,000 price cut.
The upscale Brentwood mansion was first listed in June for $7.765 million, just six months after the actor and comedian’ssudden death.
“Bob was very into tech,” the actor’s nephew Adam Saget, theCompassagent handling the sale, said in a release. “Over the years he put in smart house controls and automation throughout the home.”
Originally built in 1964 and renovated in 2003, the privately gated home features a grand motor court, three-car garage, pool, spa, and barbecue entertainment area.

“The natural light throughout the home is really wonderful and from almost every window you can see greenery,” added Adam Saget in the release. “When driving into the property, the mature manicured landscaping offers a peaceful and tranquil setting, it doesn’t feel like you are in LA.
Medical officials working with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department later determined that Sagetdied from head traumaconsistent with some kind of fall.

Just eight months before his death, Philadelphia-born Sagetreflected on his own mortalityin a wide-ranging interview with theTil This Day with Radio Rahimpodcast.
“I’m proud of myself because I’m onto a new thing,” Saget told host Radio Rahim in thefirst part of the interview, which provided a unique glimpse into his state of mind throughout the final months of his life.
“At 65, I’m different than I was,” he added. “We’re all rethinking what we said 20 years ago, 10 years ago, four years ago. I’m not even rethinking it. I just don’t have the same way of doing humor or conversation.”
“I guess therapy, having three kids, watching people pass away in the past few years, mortality, all that stuff has fortunately changed me,” he continued. “My kids tell me, ‘Dad, you’re different. It’s so nice to watch you grow.'”
On Wednesday, Saget’s co-starJohn Stamoshonored the life of his late friend in anewly-released trailerfor theupcoming Netflix special,Dirty Daddy: The Bob Saget Tribute.
In the footage, Stamos is seen reading his final text exchange with Saget at The Comedy Store in LA - which includes a friendly joke at the expense of his close friend, musicianJohn Mayer, 44.
“I wanna read my last text from Bob,” Stamos, 58, said in the trailer. “He said, ‘I love you so much. I will say that God gave me the brother that I wanted.'”
“I said, ‘Well, you have a lot of god-given brothers, but I’m first, right?'” Stamos continued. “And he said, ‘Mayer is an amazing friend, but he’s more fair-weather. You’re always there, so you’re number one.’ "
