BRIEF: Jason Statham joins homebuying action in Hollywood Hills with $2.7-million deal

May 26--Action star Jason Statham has bought a Midcentury Modern man cave in the Hollywood Hills West for $2.7 million.

The English actor earlier this spring purchased a Beverly Hills house for $12.995 million.

The dated interiors of his latest acquisition, a single-story built in 1957, have a retro vibe. Dining and living rooms, a breakfast nook, four bedrooms and four bathrooms are within the 2,917 square feet of interior space. The master suite has a fireplace and includes a den.

Walls of glass look out onto patios, a saltwater swimming pool with a spa and gardens on the quarter-acre property. A perimeter wall adds privacy.

Statham, 47, has been in the "Fast Furious," "Expendables" and "Transporter" film series. The box-office draw stars this year in "Wild Card," "Spy" and "Furious Seven." He'll star next year in "Mechanic: Resurrection."

The property previously sold in 2003 for $1.06 million. Trulia spotted the purchase, which public records confirm.

Sigal Diamant of Nelson Shelton Associates was the listing agent. Ben Bacal of Rodeo Realty represented Statham.

The actor owns other properties including a house in gated Malibu Colony that he bought in 2009 for $10.95 million.
