The sale comes six months after Fisher, 60, died of a heart
attack and "Singin' in the Rain" star Reynolds, 84, passed away
the next day.
The 1928 house, complete with swimming pool, tennis court and a
guest house where Fisher lived for many years, is listed at $18
million and will be sold separately.
The rambling estate was featured in the HBO documentary "Bright
Lights" about their tempestuous relationship that was aired in
January.
Their personal property, to be auctioned in Los Angeles over
several days starting Sept. 23, includes Fisher's 1978 "Star
Wars" Princess Leia action figure in its original packaging, her
on-set chair from the film of "The Return of the Jedi," and
Reynolds' lavender silk chiffon dress worn in "Singin' in the
Rain," auctioneers Profiles in History said in a statement.
"My mother and sister were magnificent collectors, they amassed
an amazing and diverse collection in their lifetimes," Reynolds'
son Todd Fisher said in the statement.
"So in keeping with my mother's wishes we have decided to share
part of their magnificent collection with all their friends and
fans."
More than 1500 lots will be auctioned in what is expected to be
a sale lasting several days, Profiles in History said.
