A Beverly Hills, California, mansion that was the longtime home to late actress Ann Rutherford, best known for her role as Carreen O’Hara in the movie “Gone With the Wind,” has hit the market for $39.9 million. Dubbed The Rutherford House, the mansion was built in 1938 for Beverly Hills mayor and real estate developer Edward Paul Dentzel. It later became home to Rutherford and her second husband William Dozier, creator of the 1960s “Batman” TV series.
During their decades of ownership, the celebrity couple hosted numerous weddings on the property, including those of Jack Jones, Jill St. John, Tammy Grimes and Jeremy Slate. Ann Rutherford died at this home, located on Greenway Drive, in 2012.
