Dolly Parton's Decade-Long California Weekend Habit Goes Up For Sale

For about ten years, Dolly Parton kept a cottage retreat in California that served less as a residence than as a standing weekend habit, a place to step out of the spotlight rather than to be seen in it. That kind of low-profile arrangement is its own quiet signal in real estate circles, where a property's value often has as much to do with how it was used as with who used it. The cottage is now on the market, offering a new owner the rare chance to take up a decade of that same rhythm.
