Tik Tok meme queen turned bonafide pop music superstar Doja Cat didn’t emerge a winner at this year’s Grammys, but the proudly eccentric L.A. native (“Say So,” “Like That,” “Mooo!”) did score a rakishly attractive new house in which to display — if all goes according to plan — many awards to come. The $2.2 million midcentury is stashed away high in the mountains above Beverly Hills, in a leafy hamlet that’s an easy walk to the hiking trails of local canyons.
Built in 1960 but since renovated multiple times, the multilevel structure sits privately behind a reasonably long driveway and a tall canopy of elm and palm trees that give the place a snug, treehouse-esque vibe. There are three or potentially four bedrooms and two bathrooms in about 2,400 square feet of living space, per the listing, while the hillside lot inself spans .19-acres of sloped land.
Out front, the garage door is accented by an unusual wood appliqué for visual spice, while a long concrete staircase leads up to the main level and front door. Inside, the home’s public spaces are confined to one massive great room, which goes for a monolithic all-white look. Floor-to-ceiling windows and a dual-sided fireplace allow in light and heat, while the adjoining skylit kitchen is decidedly no-nonsense with its grey-and-white everything, including a curved island with a vaguely streamline moderne-inspired look.
Also on the ground floor are two guest bedrooms, both of which share a single full bath. Downstairs is a full basement attached to the aforementioned garage, complete with two large storage room and a bonus room that could be a fourth bedroom or a wee private gym, office, or music studio.

The concrete bathroom offers an open air shower next to a built-in soaking tub, and there’s also a walk-in closet with custom built-in cabinets, perfect for Doja Cat’s famously wild outfits. A slim balcony overlooks the backyard.

Image Credit: Movoto Due to the property’s steep slope, usable outdoor space is somewhat restricted, but the lot does include an oddly shaped, balloon-like plunge pool, along with a wood and concrete patios, banquette seating and ivy-covered hillsides, all of them enveloped by mature evergreen trees for ultimate privacy.

Image Credit: Movoto Born Amala Diamini to a South African father and a Jewish mother in L.A.’s Tarzana neighborhood, Doja Cat was raised primarily in the Bronx and Sherman Oaks, and dropped out of high school at age 16. Though critics didn’t initially take her seriously, her “Mooo” song became a Tik Tok meme and allowed her to amass a significant fanbase. Her 2020 single “Say So” then went top five on the Billboard Hot 100; that same year, she collaborated with major artists including Ariana Grande and Megan Thee Stallion, ultimately scoring three nominations at this year’s Grammy Awards.
Monica Barragan and Lilian Soares-Macieira of Keller Williams held the listing; Angel Salvador of The Agency repped Doja Cat.
