(12-07) 04:00 PST Los Angeles — Leonardo DiCaprio, who in a sort of passing of the teen-idol baton sat courtside next to “High School Musical” star Zac Efron at the Los Angeles Lakers game two weeks ago, has listed one of his Malibu properties for sale at $8,999,000. What’s next? Will the mini-me Efron buy the house of the man whose career he says he wants to emulate? Unlikely, but heck, they were even photographed folding their hands the same way.

DiCaprio, who turned 34 last month, has listed a contemporary home that sits on the bluffs above the Pacific. A stairway leads to the private beach cove below. The main house has two bedrooms and two bathrooms in 2,374 square feet. The master bathroom has marble fixtures and a steam shower. A separate guesthouse has two one-bedroom suites. There is a four-car garage and a large grassy area, and – no surprise to DiCaprio followers – the property is private.

DiCaprio, who captured the public’s attention playing Jack Dawson in “Titanic” (1997), also starred in “Romeo & Juliet” (1996), “Catch Me if You Can” (2002), “Gangs of New York” (2002) and “Blood Diamond” (2006). He stars in “Body of Lies” (2008) and the upcoming holiday release of “Revolutionary Road,” which again teams him with Kate Winslet, his “Titanic” co-star. It is already being called an Oscar contender.
