From TRD Los Angeles: Rose McGowan’s legal fight against Harvey Weinstein prompted the sale of her LA home, which just closed for $1.93 million.

The four-bedroom house was almost 3,000 square feet and had an open-concept layout, an outdoor terrace also with a fire pit and sat atop Nichols Canyon. The actress bought the house in 2011 for almost $1.4 million, according to the New York Post.

She announced her intention to sell the house earlier in the year so she could use the funds to continue her legal battle against Weinstein, whom she alleges raped her in 1997. Weinstein subsequently reached a $100,000 settlement with the actress, according to the New York Times.

The producer has faced a series of allegations and sexual harassment complaints from women since fall last year and has since been fired from his studio, The Weinstein Company, which subsequently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. [NYP]Erin Hudson
