Record Producer Josh Abraham Lists L.A. Home for $3.3M

A 1920s-built Spanish-style home sitting above Los Angeles’ Sunset Strip belonging singer-songwriter and producer Josh Abraham has hit the open market with a $3.295-million asking price.

The 4,700-square-foot house holds four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms and is known as Cresthill in local real estate circles due to its location at the end of a cul-de-sac above the famous Sunset Boulevard.

The home is situated above the building that once held Ciro’s, a nightclub that was very popular in the 1940s and 50s. Cresthill’s lowest level has a “mysterious hatch” as it was identified in listing materials that, as legend goes, held a tunnel with direct access to Ciro’s. It is said that the likes of Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, and a host of other iconic stars from that era visited Cresthill in after-hours parties and gatherings after enjoying a night at Ciro’s.

Other amenities of the home include a living room with barrel-vaulted ceilings and a large fireplace, a formal dining room that adjoins the living room, dark hardwood flooring, a kitchen with butcher block and solid surface countertops paired with modern appliances, and a family room.

Cresthill opens up to sweeping views of Los Angeles that are briefly interrupted by an up-close-and-personal view of the Mondrian hotel.

Abraham is famous for his work with acts and musicians like Adam Lambert, Carly Rae Jepson, Pink, and the band Thirty Seconds to Mars. He and his wife, Regina, tried to offload Cresthill last year, listing it for $2.995 million and then slashing it to $2.695 million before taking it off the market three months later. The couple also owns a 4,000-plus square-foot home in the gated Summit community found between Beverly Hills and Studio City.
