Hollywood actress Shannen Doherty has put her Malibu home on the market.

Doherty, who shot to fame in the original Beverly Hills 90210, is selling her house in the zip code 90265 for $4 million.

The gated contemporary house, built in 1976, has five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms in 3,410 square feet.

Set back from a private street by a long driveway, the house sits on more than an acre of landscaped grounds with ocean views, mature trees, a swimming pool, a spa and a large patio.

Inside, an open floor plan, high pitched ceilings, terracotta pavers and skylights create a casual, beach vibe.

A dramatic fireplace is flanked by picture windows in the sunken living room. The master bedroom suite has a corner fireplace, a wood-beamed ceiling and views of the Pacific.

Doherty, 38, bought the two-storey home in 2004 for $2.56 million after portraying one of the witchy Halliwell sisters for three seasons on the TV series Charmed.

She played teenage twin Brenda Walsh on the first four seasons of the hit drama Beverly Hills 90210 and has returned in the role of successful, grown-up actress Walsh on the updated 90210.

Doherty had listed the home in April of last year at $4.4 million but subsequently withdrew it. She is selling because she plans to spend more time in New York, according to her listing agent.
