The house in which Former US president John F. Kennedy's assassin lived for six weeks in 1963 is up for sale.

Lee Harvey Oswald rented a room in a house in Dallas to which he returned shortly after shooting Kennedy on November 22, 1963.

In a report by Sky News, Warren Commission, which investigated the president's death, accredited that Oswald hurriedly entered, grabbed a jacket and headed back out into the neighbourhood that day.

Oswald shot another officer but was later arrested from a theatre in Texas.

According to the report, the house has been with Patricia Hall's family since 1942. Oswald had rented the room from Hall's grandmother Gladys Johnson.

Hall said that her grandmother was 'embarrassed and humiliated' that her home is associated with an assassin.

Puckett, Hall's mother had allowed Oliver Stone to film scenes for his 1991 film JFK in the house.

The report further added that with Kennedy's upcoming 50th death anniversary, Halls hopes that the house will fetch a good price.
