Supermodel Rachel Hunter is ready to part with her Hollywood Hills West home

Supermodel, actress and television host Rachel Hunter has put her home in Hollywood Hills West on the market for a shade under $5 million.

Tucked behind gates and privacy hedges, the 1930s English Country-style house has been brightened up with a number of contemporary details.

Details of note include white-painted walls and exposed beams, modern chandeliers and Dutch door entry. A backsplash of seafoam green tile creates visual interest in the eat-in kitchen.

Other common areas include a living room with an arched fireplace, a formal dining room and a finished basement. The master suite, with separate walk-in closets for clothes and shoes, opens to a loggia with city-light views.

In all, there are five bedrooms and five bathrooms in 5,000 square feet of interior space.

Outdoors, a stone and brick patio surrounds a swimming pool with a raised spa. Various sitting areas, an outdoor dining room, palms and other tropical landscaping complete the quarter-acre grounds.

Hunter bought the house in 2004 for about $2.425 million, records show.

Annie Challis of Compass holds the listing.

The 46-year-old Hunter is a former Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue cover girl and fashion model. Among her acting credits is the 2006 comedy “The Benchwarmers� and the TV series “Gravity.�

She currently hosts the series “Rachel’s Tour of Beauty� on New Zealand’s TV One network.
