Back on October 10, 2014, the always informative Lauren Beale at LA Times Hot Property revealed that Shavo Odadjian of the rock band System of a Down has listed his Woodland Hills home for $1.1 million on October 9, 2014.

Odadjian was born in Armenia but raised in Los Angeles where (possibly in the Glendale area) he attended the Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian school in Hollywood where his bandmates also attended school but at different times due to age gaps. Odadjian is easily recognizable for his signature braided beard. 

The home measures 5 Beds/3.75 Baths on 3,424 sqft on a total lot size of 0.25 acres built in 1964. The listing description states:
Must see it to believe it! Celebrity-owned and featured in the LA Times' "Hot Properties" section. South of the Blvd. gorgeous and recently refreshed turn-key 5 bedroom home. Gourmet chef's kitchen with vaulted ceilings, skylights, fireplace, stainless steel appliances, including Viking Range, trash compactor, and warming drawer. Formal living room with skylight and fireplace. Formal dining room with pass-through to kitchen. Over-sized family room large enough for a pool table and lounge area includes a wet bar. Master suite on main floor, with vaulted ceilings, walk-in closet, jetted tub and separate steam shower. 4 additional bedrooms upstairs, including 2 with vaulted ceilings. 2 full baths and built in cabinets upstairs as well. Entertainer's backyard with sparkling pool with spa, outdoor kitchen, hot tub and fire-pit. Beautiful mountain views from the front and rear. Excellent schools.
Odadjian purchased this property on June 28, 2002 for $690,000 and looks to make a profit of $410,000 not factoring in taxes, commissions, renovations, and carrying costs.

In addition to the Woodland Hills home, Odadjian also owns a Burbank home (shown above) up in the hills overlooking the airport that was purchased on January 18, 2012 for $1.5 million which might explain the reason for listing the Woodland Hills home. The home measures 5 Beds/4.5 Baths on 4,200 sqft on a total lot size of 9,688 sqft built in 2001. The listing description states: 
Property Description: This elegant 5 bedroom, 5 bath room home located in the Burbank Hills is situated at the end of a cul-de-sac on one of the most desirable streets in the Hallston community. In addition to its' premium location, it also has one of the premier lots with spectacular unobstructed views of both the city lights and the mountains from the very private backyard. There is a spacious covered patio, a fire pit, gazebo and water feature for fine entertaining. This home has beautiful finishes including a pattern of inlaid stone from Italy in the entry. The entry ceiling has been painted to replicate the pattern on the floor. When the sun shines through the windows, it highlights the finishes on the walls and the beautiful woods that have been used throughout this home. Entertaining is easy with the chef's kitchen open to the family room, flowing outside to the patio and gazebo. No expense has been spared in the kitchen which includes stainless steel appliances, a Viking 5 burner cook top and built in ovens and microwave. Enjoy the views from the master bedroom, bathroom and expanded balcony. The loft, connecting the additional three bedrooms and two bathrooms is the perfect place to relax. This home has it all, views, privacy and elegance.

And as a bonus, Odadjian's parent's (possibly where Shavo himself spent time) home (shown above) is also located in Burbank not too far from his new home which measures 6 Beds/4 Baths on 2,932 sqft on a total lot size of 8,013 sqft built in 1939. This property was purchased for $232,000 on July 28, 1994 which happens to be the year when System of a Down started to actively perform and the Northridge quake.
