Fresh on the MLS is the Sherman Oaks home of Neil Patrick Harris best known for starring in Doogie Howser, M.D. in the early 90's and currently playing "Barney Stinson" on How I Met Your Mother.
The home measures 6 Beds/4.5 Baths on 4,191 sqft on a total lot size of 0.29 acres built in 1991. The listing description states:

The home was last purchased on July 28, 2010 for $2.1 million and is currently listed for $2,995,000 on June 25, 2014 which would net a gain of $895,000 for Harris before taxes, commissions, and any renovation expenses.
Prior to living in the Sherman Oaks home, Harris was living in a 3 Bed Studio City ranch home that was purchased in May 2007 for $1.5 million and sold on April 28, 2011 for $1.535 million probably resulting in a small loss. The Studio City home was previously discussed on this blog here.
It appears that Harris and his man-friend fiance as well as their 2 year old twin boys have left CA altogether as the listing pictures show empty rooms and the New York Post published a September 5, 2013 article discussing Harris' Fifth Ave. townhouse purchase for $3.6 million.
