Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles star Josh Flagg just acquired a luxurious new property.

The real estate agent and Bravo star bought Charlie Puth’s Beverly Hills home in an off-market deal that closed Wednesday, Oct. 16, PEOPLE has exclusively learned.

Located in Beverly Hills’ Trousdale Estates neighborhood, the property was originally listed in November 2023 for nearly $17 million, according to TMZ. The price was then reduced to $14 million in April, before coming down to $11 million. The final price Flagg paid was not disclosed.

The "Left and Right" singer was far from the first celebrity to call the sleek property home.

Built in 1965, the four-bedroom home was designed by architect Rex Lotery and known as “the de Cordova House” since it was once owned by Tonight Show producer Freddie de Cordova and his wife Janet. The home was frequented by the Beverly Hills elite as well as members of Ronald Reagan’s friends and advisers, known as his "kitchen cabinet."

Highlights of the 4,800-square-foot house include a formal dining room with soaring ceilings, marble breakfast bar and an expansive primary suite with an en-suite bathroom “reminiscent of a luxury wellness retreat," according to the listing.

The outdoor space includes a large pool with city and mountain views as well as an elevated dining patio, fully equipped outdoor kitchen and a fire pit lounge area.

Puth, who purchased the home for $9 million in 2017, is newly married.

The singer-songwriter, 32, tied the knot with Brooke Sansone, 25, on Sept. 7 at his family house in Montecito, Calif. Sansone, a public relations coordinator, told Vogue that the couple knew the family property would "offer the perfect backdrop" for their elegant wedding.

Flagg currently lives in a six-bedroom, seven-bathroom home in Bel Air that he gave PEOPLE an inside look at last year.

His property portfolio also includes another Beverly Hills property he bought for $9.2 million sight unseen in 2022.

"I have had my eye on this home since I was a little boy. It has not been on the market in close to 60 years," Flagg told PEOPLE of that house at the time. 

He added, "When this came across my desk, I stopped everything and was immediately determined to get this home. It's always been my favorite home in the [Beverly Hills] flats."

However, he found that the interior of the house was dilapidated.

In an interview with Bravo’s Daily Dish in July, Josh admitted that buying the home was "probably not the most intelligent thing,” but added, “I love that house." 

"I'm probably gonna buy another house — a done house," he continued. "I'll probably keep the house on Bedford and then I'll build that. And then when I'm done with that, I'll either move into one or I'll sell it — sell it for space."

The MDLLA star is also expanding his real estate investments to Miami’s North Bay Road and is currently exploring properties in New York with his father, Michael Flagg. Michael is president of the Edith Flagg fashion label, named after Josh's grandmother, a fashion designer and philanthropist.
