“Dead to Me” writer Liz Feldman and her wife, singer-songwriter Rachael Cantu dropped $4.75 million on a 1925 Spanish Mediterranean architectural gem that once belonged to comedy royalty: Larry of Larry, Curly and Moe in “The Three Stooges,” The Post can exclusively reveal.
Larry Fine, known for his wild yet balding head of hair, lived in this stucco Los Feliz home at the height of his career from about 1941 to 1959 with his wife Mabel and their two children, Johnny and Phyllis. Before buying their stucco LA home, the Fines lived in hotels due to his wife’s dislike of housekeeping, according to IMDb.
Columbia Pictures ended “The Three Stooges” movies in 1957, nearly forcing Fine into bankruptcy, according to IMDb — which may have contributed to Fine’s decision to sell the home with a terracotta-tiled roof and arched windows and doorways.
The trio went on the road and soon found renewed interest in their slapstick comedy. Fine made over 200 films during his career and was also a talented violinist. His wife Mabel died in 1967, and Fine died in 1975.
Since its history with the bushy-haired “Stooge,” the four-bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom house has played host to politicians and entrepreneurs.
Now, the 4,000-square-foot home is housing another comedian — Feldman — who also wrote “2 Broke Girls” and “The Great Indoors.” Feldman’s wife, Cantu, is known for her music, which has been featured in “Pretty Little Liars,” “Degrassi” and other television shows, according to her website.
