Renowned drummer, singer, and songwriter Matt Helders of the famed British indie rock band Arctic Monkeys has placed his tastefully curated Los Angeles home on the market.
Purchased for nearly $1.6 million back in 2019, the home is now listed at a price tag of US$3 million.
The property was originally crafted by architect Schwen Wei Ma for Chinatown cofounder Peter Soo Hoo in the 1950s, according to Dirt.com.
Helders collaborated with local interior designer Corinne Mathern to remodel the space, maintaining its original charm while adding personal artistic elements.
This aesthetic amalgamation, inspired by the works of Jacques Tati, Michelangelo Antonioni, William Eggleston, and Jean Prouvรฉ, has resulted in a residence that beautifully intertwines mid-century modern design with contemporary flair.
The property boasts a generous 240sq m of living space across two floors, housing four bedrooms and four bathrooms.
It features a delicate blend of chrome metal, honed concrete, handmade tile, and walnut paneling, accented by strategic pops of colour.
Upon entry, visitors are greeted by a custom wood screen crafted by PSS Design Cult.
Further inside, a soothing pale green living room featuring wall-to-wall glass, a dining room crowned with a unique matchstick chandelier, and an adjacent wet bar and office space add to the property’s charm.
A galley-style kitchen, replete with stainless appliances and an eat-in peninsula, enhances the functionality of the home.
The residence’s crowning glory, however, is the master suite with its spa-like bathroom, outfitted with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and separate shower.
Outside, the home sits on approximately 930sq m of lush grounds, hosting a tiered backyard optimal for outdoor lounging and entertaining.
A private, gated driveway ushers into a spacious motorcourt and a covered carport with space for two vehicles, rounding off the property’s exceptional appeal.
