John Schneider to sell LA home

Schneider, who shot to fame in the 1980s in Dukes of Hazzard, purchased the house in Agoura Hills in 1999 for $1.25 million.

The actor, who also starred in Dr Quinn: Medicine Woman, raised his three children on the three-acre spread, which has a creek that leads to the area where both Dukes of Hazzard and Dr Quinn were shot.

Schneider described the English-style ivy-covered house of nearly 7,000 square feet as having 'an East Coast kind of flair'.

He told the LA Times: “We have fall at the house. You have to rake leaves. I'm defaulting toward an easier life, I’d rather deal with a fairway in my backyard than a creek.'

The gated and fenced property includes detached offices, a guesthouse, an outdoor entertainment centre with kitchen and fireplace, an infinity pool, a fenced pasture for horses and three- and two-car garages.

Schneider added: “The first thing I did when we got the house was put up the largest mirror you can buy. That's where everyone would congregate around the piano.'
