Martin Johnson, lead singer and songwriter for Boys Like Girls, has put his Studio City home up for sale at a price of $1.1 million.

The three-story contemporary, built in 1978, features vaulted ceilings, balconies, canyon views, two fireplaces, two bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and 2,681 square feet of living space. The more than quarter-acre lot contains fruit trees, a lawn and a hot tub.

Boys Like Girls released a self-titled album in 2006, “Love Drunk” in 2009 and last year released “Crazy World.” Johnson has worked with Taylor Swift and Hannah Montana, among others, as a songwriter and producer.  

Johnson, 27, bought the property in 2010 for $737,000 and spent about $60,000 remodeling it.

Scott Patterson of Nourmand & Associates, Beverly Hills, is the listing agent.
