Live With Young Hollywood

Cindy Allen reported earlier in the week that Bravo TV house-flipping star Jeff Lewis recently sold this Los Feliz property to Dominic Monaghan, former hobbit and current (or recently deceased?) Lost character Charlie. The house is on Commonwealth, about a half block from a back entrance to Griffith Park. Realestalker had this to say about it:

According to property records, the 1,938 square foot house featured on the current season of the terrifically entertaining television train wreck that is Flipping Out was sold to a bizness entity that MizSpillerguts swears on her mama’s dee-voon collection of vintageBalmain suits belongs to young Mister Monaghan. We can’t verify that, but children, our Miz Spillerguts is neh-vah wrong.

The street seems to be becoming a Young Hollywood Mecca—just down the road from Monaghan, star stalkers could find the Spanish abode of Entourage hottie Vinnie Chase, a.k.a. Adrian Grenier. And the end of the road, where it hits the park, it’s a big draw for film crews—at least once a week, the area is taken over by filming, the latest being a crew from Universal. So what’s all this mean for you? We’ll here’s a few places you could scoop up if you want to count the young and famous among your neighbors:

• This 4/2 Tudor is just around the corner and boasts great views over the city. It’s listed at $1,297,000 and has been on the market a little over two months.
• Up the hill on Amesbury is this 4/4 that no one is going to call shabby. It’s got 4,040 square feet of English Norman style, and even boasts a koi pond. Listed at $2,197,000.
• Also up the hill on Farmouth is this 3/2.5 for $2,195,000. It’s a “dramatic Spanish” and that ain’t no hype.
