A historic Washington state home bought by Courtney Love about eight years ago is up for public auction to satisfy debts in a foreclosure case, authorities say.
The 41-year-old rocker, who was married to Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, purchased the bungalow for his family in 1997 and now owes about $367,000, including the loan balance and legal fees, to WMC Mortgage Corp. of Los Angeles, which filed for foreclosure in court.
The house on 13 acres at the edge of Capitol Forest near Littlerock, about 10 miles south of Olympia, was built in 1903 and is now occupied by Cobain’s sister, Kim, sheriff’s records show. According to documents filed with a lawsuit in October 2004, Love quit making mortgage payments in December 2003.
