Not long after Allison Holker’s longtime husband and fellow dancer Stephen “tWitch” Boss died tragically by suicide at age 40 this past December, she honored the beloved DJ of The Ellen DeGeneres Show by launching the Move with Kindness foundation to support mental health initiatives.
She also began sharing dance videos with her many social media followers once again—something the couple often did together during their 10-year marriage. “Truly felt so good to dance again,” the dancer and choreographer said in an Instagram post. “I was overwhelmed with so many emotions. I was both scared and excited. But dance has always been there for me … even now and I am so grateful for that.”
Now Holker—probably most known for appearing alongside tWitch in Season seven of So You Think You Can Dance back in 2010—has taken strides toward a fresh residential start, having listed the couple’s Encino marital home and doled out nearly $5 million for a modern farmhouse-style spread in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Studio City.
Newly built in 2023, the two-story home boasts six bedrooms and seven baths a little more than 5,800 square feet of living space adorned throughout with hardwood floors, high ceilings, designer lighting and glass doors offering seamless indoor-outdoor environs. Amenities include a movie theater, fitness room and an office, as well as a separate guest house sporting a kitchenette and full bath.
Holker’s recently acquired property sits on a walled and gated parcel spanning almost a half-acre of land, with a circular driveway and an attached two-car garage fronting the two-tone and wood-accented structure. Once inside, an entry foyer flows to a fireside living room flanked by a formal dining room nestled alongside a wine display.
Additional main-level highlights include a spacious family room spotlighted by a fireplace and access to a covered patio that’s ideal for al fresco dining. An adjoining gourmet kitchen is outfitted with custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, dual islands and sinks, a service bar with double-sided seating, wine fridge, Thermador appliances and an accompanying breakfast nook.
A curving metal-clad staircase heads upstairs, where the plush master retreat comes complete with a fireplace, private balcony, showroom-style closet, and spa-inspired bath decked out with dual vanities, a dressing area, soaking tub and large glass-encased shower; and outdoors, the grounds host a pool with a Baja shelf and waterfall-fed spa, along with a fire-pit, built-in barbecue and seated bar.
The listing was held by Zeev Perez of Equity Union; Anthony Paradise of Sotheby’s International Realty repped Holker.
