An offbeat home once owned by noted songwriter and record producer Bob Crewe has come on the market in Hollywood Hills West for $4.898 million.
Built in 1993, the tri-level contemporary rests against the hillside and has views that extend from the cityscape to the ocean. Different shaped windows run up the wide front of the home, which has terrace balconies on each level. A rooftop patio provides another level of outdoor living.
Within more than 5,400 square feet of interior are four bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a living room with a fireplace, a pearl-white chef’s kitchen and an elevator. Sliding glass doors in the dining room open to a garden courtyard.
