Flea puts Malibu house on the market
The Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Michael Balzary, known as Flea, has listed a newly built Malibu house for sale at $4,795,000.
Designed by Marmol Radziner, the contemporary indoor-outdoor home has a cement floor and ocean and canyon views. There are three bedrooms, three bathrooms and an office in more than 3,000 square feet. Outdoor amenities on the gated 2.4-acre site include a free-form swimming pool.
Flea, 48, is a founding member of the Grammy-winning band, which has released nine studio albums since it formed in 1983 and has sold more than 65 million copies worldwide. “I’m With You,” the group’s 10th album, is expected this summer.
He bought the original house on the site in 2002 for $2.55 million. It was burned in the 2007 Malibu fires, according to Times archives.
Sandro Dazzan and Irene Dazzan-Palmer of Coldwell Banker, Malibu Colony, are the listing agents.
