The Skinny: Purchased for $3.8M in 2006 by former RealNetworks VP Alex Alben, this one's been on and off the market an absurd amount of times since 2008. He ends up taking a million less than that but it seems like he's probably happy to be able to move on. The 1928 four-bedroom features red-tile roof, Spanish tile floors and leaded windows evoke that Mediterranean feel while a Clive Christian kitchen, complete with a farmhouse sink and marble counters, brings some casual modernity into the mix.
