Florida Home of the Doors Singer Jim Morrison is on the Market for $2.5 Million
- by Colin Wolf
On Dec. 8, 1943, the Doors frontman Jim Morrison was born at the Brevard Hospital on U.S. 1 in Melbourne. Now, the birth home of "The Lizard King" is for sale, and the asking price is really going to light your fire.
Located at 2100 Vernon Pl., the historic 1,856-square-foot home was built in 1935 and was last purchased for $225,000 back in 2007. The current asking price? $2.5 million.
“I believe, as the listing agent, that this home is going to go to a very special buyer who is a superfan of Jim Morrison and The Doors," said Steve Gordon, of eXp Realty to Florida Today. "I think that this particular buyer will probably come from either the West Coast—maybe somewhere in the Hollywood area—or somebody internationally. Potentially from somewhere in Europe or the U.K. Or maybe France, because that’s where he’s buried," he continued.
