Actress Taraji P. Henson, known for her role as the hustling Cookie Lyon on the show “Empire,” has put her home in Hollywood Hills back on the market for $2.675 million.

The Moorish-vibe contemporary, built in 2009, has been offered for lease in recent years for as much as $12,000 a month. When it was last on the market in January, the asking price was $2.745 million.

Beyond ornate front doors, the three-story house has more than 4,200 square feet of living space that includes formal living and dining rooms, a media room, an office, four bedrooms and five bathrooms. A fifth bedroom has been converted into a dressing room complete with vanities and a salon chair.

The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with a stone-topped island, custom cabinetry and a 600-bottle wine cellar. Above the kitchen sink is a window that looks into an interior atrium.

Various patios extend the living space outdoors and hold a fire pit and hot tub. There are street-facing balconies on the second and third floors.
