The late Dame Elizabeth Taylor's Bel Air mansion has been put up for sale at the price of $8.6m (£5.3m), it has been announced.The two-time Oscar winner died in March at the age of 79, after suffering from congestive heart failure.Now, Taylor's son Christopher Wilding said in a statement to the Wall Street Journal that his late mother's sprawling 7,000-square-foot estate is on the market.Describing the five-bedroom mansion as "where [the family] all gathered, especially at Thanksgiving and Easter", Wilding insisted that his mother was determined to live out her last days in the house even as she grew ill."She never entertained the notion of moving," he added.The property features an English garden, a koi pond and violet-upholstered master bedroom.Taylor's home had previously been owned by 'These Boots Are Made for Walkin'' singer Nancy Sinatra.Earlier this month, a Vanity Fair article claimed that Taylor and friends Michael Jackson and Marlon Brando took a cross-country road trip together in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. A former assistant to Taylor later denied that the star ever actually embarked on the journey.
