NEW YORK, New York --

Whitney Houston has reportedly put her New Jersey home on the market.

The singer is offering the home, located in Menham, N.J., for $2.5 million, although it is worth $5.6 million, according to several reports.

The asking price is $200,000 less than what Whitney paid for the home in 1987, according to NJ.com.

According to the listing, the home features five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms.

The home features “circular-themed interior spaces,” according to the listing.

It is located on just over 5 acres of land and is gated.

Whitney married ex-husband Bobby Brown in the home, according to People.

The singer nearly lost the home in 2006, after failing to pay taxes over four tax periods, NJ.com reported. Whitney’s mortgage company filed a lawsuit in 2006 against the singer, claiming she owed $1.04 million related to the property. The lawsuit was eventually resolved.
