The New Jersey home of late crooner Whitney Houston has reportedly returned to the market with a pricechop and is now asking for $1.49 million.
The Zillow blog reports that the home had first hit the market in 2009, but went on and off several times. It officially came up for $1.75 million in February 2012, just days before she passed away at her suite at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Houston purchased the place along with husband Bobby Brown in 1987. The home was also used to shoot scenes of the reality TV show, "Being Bobby Brown".
It has now returned exactly for $250,001 less.
Public records of the home state that the residence is a 13,607 square feet, single family home comprising of five beds and six baths. The large home sits on a 24 acre lot.
The double-winged, circular home has tiled flooring, floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors and drywall ceilings.
Outside, the home has a tennis court, a swimming pool and ample recreation area.
The listing description reads:

Impressive two story great room with sunken bar, domed skylight and stone fireplace great for entertaining. Master suite includes custom circular bed, walk in closets and potential office area.

Houston also has another property in Atlanta, which was briefly used by her daughter Bobbi Kristina. Earlier in June 2013, Bobbi was reportedly evicted from her Alpharetta, Georgia, home which she shared with now-husband Nick Gordon.
The two were evicted for making a ruckus in the place. Bobbi even left a nasty hand-written note for the neighbors who complained against them, reports RadarOnline.com.
However, reps for Bobbi told E!Online that she left the place and was not actually evicted.
"Bobbi felt that the neighbors were always in her business and looking to get some sort of media attention. Krissy lives on the 2nd floor and as with anyone who lives in a first floor apartment you should expect to hear some noise above you. But apparently these people have been nuts for a long time. So she decided to move out. She was not evicted."
