After under two years of ownership, Halsey is letting go of her historic Los Feliz estate for $5.5 million. The singer-songwriter, who announced her engagement to actor Avan Jogia in September, paid about $5 million for the elegantly restored Spanish Colonial Revival home in 2023. The pad has certified Historic-Cultural Monument status. It was built by architect Arthur W. Larson in 1928 for restaurateur Cilfford Clinton, the founder and namesake of the delightfully kitschy Clifton’s Cafeteria near Downtown Los Angeles.
Situated on a 0.34-acre plot just across the street from Griffith Park, the 5,900-square-foot abode boasts six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a laundry list of rich period details, including stained glass windows, coffered ceilings, ornamental plaster, decorative wrought iron, and wood-burning fireplaces. A dark wooden front door with an intricately carved floral motif welcomes guests into the charming dwelling, where arched doorways, colorful Spanish tiles, and antique light fixtures abound.
Original robin’s egg blue tiles line the walls of the kitchen, which is outfitted with a navy La Cornue range, a refurbished original built-in Frigidaire refrigerator, and a butler’s pantry. Elsewhere on the ground floor, an office features a hand-stenciled ceiling, elaborate millwork, and a curved corner fireplace.
Upstairs, the bedrooms enjoy Juliet balconies and bathrooms clad in their original tile, each in its own sumptuous hue: lilac, mint green, and butter yellow. In the basement, a home theater sports a light-up starry sky ceiling. A swimming pool, bathhouse, and sundeck that Clinton added on in 1936 grace the backyard.
Halsey tends to keep it moving when it comes to real estate. The “Eastside” singer bought a midcentury-modern Sherman Oaks home designed by Richard Dorman in 2019, then listed her modern Hollywood Hills pad a few months later. In 2021, she bought Liam Payne’s Calabasas estate for $10.2 million and listed her Sherman Oaks pad. In 2023, she dropped Payne’s former home onto the market and bought this 1920s gem, which she is preparing to part ways with right on cue, two years later.
According to public records, the home is listed by Carl Gambino and Alyson Richards of the Gambino Group at Compass.
