Celebrity Rental: Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber

In support of and in property gossip solidarity with the hardworking kids at Curbed and their annual "Renter's Week," Your Mama thought we'd have a brief look-see at a handful of homes in the sensationally scenic, punishingly pricey, and celeb-saturated seaside community of Malibu, CA, that are currently available for rent and owned by a high profile Tinseltowner...

Cindy Crawford—a 47-yeard supermodel glamazon who looks downright sickening in a recent photo shoot for V Magazine—and her beau-hunky former model turned restaurateur husband Rande Gerber have had a real estate foot hold in Malibu. Their main Malibu residence is an ocean front compound that clings to a steep hillside but, since 1998, they've also owned another, much more modest ocean front residence on a sandy stretch of sand between El Matador State Beach and the quickly disappearing Broad Beach. They paid, as per property records, $1.85 million for the upgraded and well-maintained semi-Spanish-style beach house and currently have it up for lease as a long-term furnished rental at $19,500 per month.

Current digital marketing materials reveal the beach-front house sits down a shared but private and gated street and has 3-4 bedrooms and three bathrooms in 2,413 square feet that also includes an main living area that opens through numerous wood-framed sliding glass doors to a glass-railed deck with direct beach access and contemplative views up and down the sand and surf.
