Shout it from “The Hills” — Lauren Conrad, the original darling of Orange County, has listed her Pacific Palisades home for $5.2 million.

The former MTV star is looking for a quick profit, since she bought the 5,900-square-foot bungalow for just $4.4 million in April 2015. Conrad renovated the property over the past year.

The five-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom house is “flawlessly remodeled,” according to marketing materials. That remodeling included a touch of paint. The main house, a Mediterranean-style property with a colonial touch, was tan with a terracotta roof when Conrad bought it. It’s now bright white, as are most of the interiors.
