Pop singer Sia buys 'enchanting' LA home for $6.5 million

Australian singer-songwriter Sia has bought a home in Los Feliz,  Los Angeles for $4.7 million (AU$6.5 million), according to area real estate sources not authorised to comment on the deal.

The 1924 Mediterranean property is described in the listing as a “masterpiece” and “enchanting”. Designed by Angelus Temple architect A.F. Leicht, known for his fanciful designs, the home features ornate accents, wood carvings, stained-glass murals and elaborately shaped ceilings.

The centrepiece living room contains a sunken sun room with cityscape views. A formal entry, a dining room, a den, a billiards room, a library/study, five bedrooms and five bathrooms are within the 465 square metres of living space.

The large landscaped grounds include a spa.

Sia, 39, last year released her sixth studio album, 1000 Forms of Fear, which contains the popular single ‘Chandelier’. The big-voiced singer, who has been hailed as a “pop savant” and an “art-pop superstar,” combines hip-hop and funk elements while drawing heavily from soul.

The property previously sold three years ago for $3.307 million (AU$4.5 million), public records show.
