The property was recently acquired for $1.8 million by Dexter Scott King, the son of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King. Aside from being the chairman of the King Center in Atlanta, D.S. King also played a role portraying his father in a TV movie in 2002.

Dexter is dividing his time between California and Atlanta. His newly acquired home sits on a corner lot. The estate has eight rooms and five and a half bathrooms. The back patio of the home features stunning tile work, vaulted ceilings, and is overlooking a well-kept garden, as reported by Curbed news.

Meanwhile, the youngest son of Martin Luther King, Dexter Scott King, now 54, also listed his 6,800-square-foot Malibu mansion on the market for $4.85 million.

Dexter bought the Malibu mansion in 2006 for $4.16 million, and divides his time between Malibu and Atlanta. His Malibu home, which sits on over an acre of land in a gated community, has four bedrooms and six bathrooms.

As chairman of the King Center, Dexter is overseeing a group of historic buildings in Atlanta that operate as museums telling the story of his late father. Dexter King, who played a role portraying his father in the 2002 TV movie entitled "The Rosa Parks Story," also wrote a book about his father's slaying, entitled "Growing Up King: An Intimate Memoir."

According to a Daily Mail report, Dexter bought the well-secured mansion in Malibu, which features expansive ocean views, a two-car garage, a pool with a cabana, plus a waterfall and a koi pond.

King was the youngest of four children. He was seven years old when his famed activist father was assassinated.

The contemporary home in Malibu owned by Dexter Scott King is up for sale with an asking price of $4.85 million. The property also has a spacious lot with paths and fruit trees.
