It was later revealed by the Los Angeles County medical examiner Mr Perry’s death was caused by the “acute effects of ketamine,” and that the actor also had opioids in his system.
The Friends star bought the Pacific Palisades for US$6m in 2020 and added extensive renovations to the property, including a pool installation that features a red LED-lit bat signal at the floor of the pool.
The new owner of the property is real estate developer and movie producer Anita Verma-Lallian.

Modest by Hollywood standards, the mid-century modern abode changed hands in May 2023 for US$4.99m (A$7.53m) in what has been described as an off-market deal, according to Realtor.
Before his death, the actor had been involved in several real estate transactions.
He also sold a beachfront Malibu retreat for US$13.1m in 2021.
That same year, he let go of his massive penthouse property in Los Angeles for US$21.6m.
