Golfer holes out in the Palisades

After taking a couple of swings at it, golfer Denis Watson and his wife, attorney Susan Loggans, have sold their Pacific Palisades compound for $12.9 million.

Built in 1982, the renovated Mediterranean-style estate, guesthouse, tennis court, pool, cabana and spa sit on 2.5 acres adjacent to Will Rogers Historic State Park.

The equestrian property has corrals and a yearround stream. There are nine bedrooms, 9.5 bathrooms and about 10,000 square feet of living space.

Watson, 57, won three PGA titles in 1984. He joined the senior tour after turning 50 and was voted rookie of the year in 2007.

Watson and Loggans bought the property in 2004 from former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, according to public records.

It had been listed then for $7.95 million.

They put the house on the market early this year at $13.9 million, having first listed it 21⁄ years ago.
