Season eight of Modern Family is about to premiere next week.

And it seems star Eric Stonestreet is celebrating by selling a modest starter home that he owns in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles.

The 45-year-old actor, who now reportedly makes $10 million a year thanks to his hit ABC comedy, listed the small property for $1.099 million, according to Trulia.

He originally purchased it back in 2008, prior to his Modern Family fame, for $735,000, which means the star stands to make quite a tidy profit if it sells for asking price.

Totaling 1,635 square feet, the home includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, but seems to have a rather dated kitchen.

On the outside, the home, built in 1948, boasts storybook window details and lush green landscaping, which is somewhat unexpected given current conditions in drought stricken Southern California.

Interesting interior details include a galley kitchen, exposed beams in the family room, and what looks to be an original, retro sink in one of the bathrooms.

A large patio out back is perfect for entertaining a sizable group of people.

Though it appears lived in, TMZ actually reports that the house has been rented out, which may explain the odd decor in some rooms.

While he's obviously ready to part with the property, Eric still has more assets in his real estate portfolio.

He still reportedly owns a small suburban house in Valley Village, CA, which he bought in 2002 for $540,000.

Aside from his real estate ventures and Modern Family, Eric most recently starred in the animated hit The Secret Life of Pets.
