Mandy Moore Purchases A Mid-Century Modern House

Exists any much better way to celebrate a recent Emmy nomination and off-the-charts tv scores than buying a new piece of real estate? Mandy Moore must think so, since she recently closed on a Harold Zook-designed house for $2.56 million.

Although the house's architecture looks right out of Palm Springs, the NBC star's brand-new digs are situated in the Linda Vista area of Pasadena, just northeast of Downtown Los Angeles.

Back in October, Moore sold her Los Feliz residence for nearly $3 million. Her new contemporary environments are a plain contrast from the Mediterranean residence she when owned, which was dressed in classy chandeliers and exposed beams. It appears as though the mid-century inspired appearance is popular amongst Hollywood A-listers, including Katy Perry and Leonardo DiCaprio.

Moore's single-story house spans 3,551-square-feet, consisting of 3 bedrooms, 3 restrooms and a convertible den. The additional space could come in convenient if she chooses to mimic her on-screen character's substantial household.

The white-and-green cooking area includes two different islands, a curved breakfast nook, skylight and integrated wine storage. Nearby, a streamlined flooring fireplace enclosed by an enormous copper hood separates the living room and dining room without compromising sight lines.

Big windows create an indoor-outdoor ambiance fitting for the home's throwback style. Each primary location space uses prime views of the exterior, outfitted in lush green landscaping, lavish pool and pool surrounds and several outdoor patios linked by sidewalks.

There's an additional seating location with a retaining wall at the edge of the home where sensational views of the mountainous and landscape design are difficult to beat.

Now might be a great time for the singer-turned-actress to get away the hurried city life for a quieter environment, considering her premier show was renewed for two more seasons back in January.
