The mansion boasts eight bedrooms, a swimming pool with a cabana, a motor court and two studies, where Collins reportedly did most of her work

Real estate firm Hilton & Hyland confirmed the modern house featuring a roughly 100-foot-long art gallery is going on the market.

The property, which sits on about one acres, includes a guest house, offices, a gym, a sauna and even a screening room.

It also boasts a swimming pool with a cabana, a motor court and is any writer's haven with five writing desks throughout as well as two studies, where Collins did most of her work, according to the real estate firm.

'From ceilings and sinks to shelves and phone and computer outlets, they all had to be just so,' according to Collins. 

In a 2014 interview with the Journal, she noted how the design of the home was inspired by David Hockney's painting A Bigger Splash, which she had seen at a gallery in London with her second husband Oscar Lerman in 1989.

'I couldn't take my eyes off the pool and fell in love with the clean lines, suspended splash and overall tranquility,' she said.

'Within days, I was sketching a design for a new home that wrapped around a pool based on the one in the painting.'

She was then engaged to Frank Calcagnini in 1994 however he passed away from a brain tumor four years later.

Collins, who is the sister of English actress Joan Collins, began writing as a teenager and her first book, The World is Full of Married Men, was published in 1968 and became 'sensational bestseller'.
