Pentatonix’s Scott Hoying Shells Out $4 Million for an All New L.A. Contemporary Home

Grammy winning a cappella group Pentatonix has come along way over the past decade. Since the band won the third season of NBC’s “The Sing Off” in 2011, they’ve released multiple EPs and full length albums, done tribute performances on several award shows, and went viral after their Jolene collaboration with Dolly Parton on Jolene was shown on The Voice .

That collab also won Pentatonix their third Grammy trophy. Pentatonix’s baritone Scott Hoying married Mark Manio in a lavish Santa Barbara extravaganza six months ago, and now the 32 year old Texas native—he was born and raised in Arlington before moving to California in his late teens to attend the University of Southern California—has found residential bliss in the form of buying a nearly $4 million home in Encino , a suburban and celebrity loved neighborhood in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley.

Built new in 2023 on speculation, the two story house is styled in a trendy modern farmhouse meets contemporary sort of architectural style. Blocky and hard edged on the outside, the 4,300 square foot structure gets soft and neutral on the inside, with European white oak hardwood floors, abundant natural light and brass fixtures found throughout.

Set behind walls and gates, the property’s petite front yard is shaded by a mature olive tree. Behind the custom front door lies a long hallway that runs the full length of the home, helping to marry the kitchen with the open dining, living and family areas. Premium Wolf appliances and travertine imported from Italy give the kitchen a Euro chic look, and foldaway glass pocket doors allow for easy catering to the al fresco dining area.

Per the listing, there are five bedrooms in the main house, all of them equipped with ensuite full baths and all but one situated on the home’s upper level. The 6,700 square foot lot also offers a fully permitted and detached ADU (additional dwelling unit) currently configured as a guesthouse. In between the two buildings is a cozy, courtyard style backyard equipped with an AstroTurf lawn and a compact plunge pool, plus the aforementioned outdoor dining space.

As far as we know, this is the second house ever purchased by Hoying, who back in 2018 forked out $2.5 million for a sleekly contemporary house just minutes from Hollywood’s Universal Studios. Per online listings, that property is currently for sale, asking $2.6 million, and recently entered escrow with an as yet unknown buyer..
