This splendid little Silver Lake artist’s bungalow appeared on the open market recently. The seller is Rage Against the Machine singer Zack de la Rocha, and he’d like to see $1.65 million come his way at closing.
The 1922-built three-bedroom home is nestled in a green corner of the neighborhood, and features a wraparound deck that culminates in back with a pool and a studio that could easily be converted into a guest house.
The main house sports some Craftsman design elements, including tapered porch posts, and what appear to be original pine plank floors. A mix of casement and sash windows, floating shelves, and off-white walls and ceilings are other details of this inviting and charmingly literate home.
The main living area of the home boasts great flow, with the living room, dining room, dayroom and kitchen all linked. The master bedroom features a set of French doors that open to a private deck and the outdoor living area. The house finds room for a fairly spacious walk-in closet.
The outdoor living area is as essential as the main house. A sheltered living area, a dining area, a small garden, and very private landscaping make this property a little Silver Lake idyll.
Rage Against the Machine was slated to reunite in 2020 for a world tour, but the plan was postponed due to the pandemic.
