No Doubt About Los Feliz House

"No Doubt rose to fame in 1995 with the album "Tragic Kingdom," which has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and produced such hit singles as "Just a Girl," performed by Stefani for the movie "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion" (1997), and "Don't Speak," an MTV Video Music Award winner for best group video in the fall."

"The Los Feliz house has five bedrooms in 5,000 square feet and is Mediterranean in style. It has stenciled beam ceilings and a courtyard, sources say. Built in 1928, the house, on half an acre, has been renovated over the years but is said to need more work."

"Stefani, who grew up in Anaheim, was recruited into the band by her older brother Eric, who co-founded it in 1986. He also has co-written many of the songs but quit the band in 1994 to concentrate on being an animator for "The Simpsons" and other projects."

Stefani, who grew up in Anaheim, was recruited into the band by her older brother Eric, who co-founded it in 1986 before leaving to work as an animator for "The Simpsons."
