Model-turned-actress Natasha Henstridge, who starred as the alluring human-alien hybrid Sil and her clone Eve in the sci-fi horror "Species" films, has sold her Sherman Oaks home for $1.75 million.

The traditional-style house in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley was built in 1935 and sits on about half an acre. It has five bedrooms and six baths in 3,825 square feet. There are five fireplaces, vaulted wood-beam ceilings, skylights and an expansive wooden deck. Steps off the back of the house lead across the lawn to the swimming pool area.

    Henstridge, 35, will be in the upcoming movies "Anytown" (2009) and "Let the Game Begin" (2010).

    She took to the big screen as a man-murdering crossbreed in the Ben Kingsley-starring "Species" (1995), which along with "Species II" (1998) and "Species III" (2004).

    Henstridge also starred in "The Whole Nine Yards" (2000) and "The Whole Ten Yards" (2004).

    Tough guy's ranch listed

    A Santa Paula ranch once owned by actor Steve McQueen and his third wife, Barbara Minty, has come on the market for $1.95 million.

    The pair moved to the 15.3-acre Ventura County ranch and were married in the home's living room in January 1980.

    The 1892 Victorian-style house has antique stained-glass windows, mountain views, and family room and kitchen fireplaces.

    The ranch includes 3 acres of Syrah vineyards, fruit trees, a 3-acre equestrian facility and a 4,500-square-foot hangar where McQueen kept his car and motorcycle collection, which eventually included about 130 bikes.

    He picked the ranch because it reminded him of the Slater, Mo., farm he lived on during his childhood and due to its proximity to Santa Paula Airport, where he flew his yellow Stearman biplane.

    Known for his macho roles and tough-guy persona, the box-office star appeared in such films as "The Magnificent Seven" (1960), "The Great Escape" (1963), "Bullitt" (1968), "Papillon" (1973) and "The Towering Inferno" (1974).

    Athlete stalls foreclosure

    A Thousand Oaks home owned by former New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Lenny Dykstra is for sale at $4.7 million.

    The five-bedroom, 51/2 baths, two-story house, built in 1999, has 8,013 square feet of living space and mountain views. It sits on an acre in a community northwest of Los Angeles.

    Dykstra, 46, whose business ventures since retiring from major league baseball have included running a car wash chain, a charter jet company and a magazine geared toward athletes, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July.

    The filing forestalled the foreclosure auction sale of another property he owns, a 61/2-acre compound in Thousand Oaks. That mansion has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms in 12,713 square feet and was purchased in 2007 for $18.5 million.
