Red Hot Chili Peppers' Flea Auctions Off His NSW Holiday Home

Flea - real name Michael Balzary, Red Hot Chili Peppers legend, is putting his dreamy Congo, NSW holiday home up for auction.

The Californication musician has owned the property in the New South Wales coastal town of Congo since 1992. The auction begins next month, and the bassist will be there for the sale.

Flea designed the property in partnership with architect Malcom Cheadle. Sporting 2946 sqm (approx. half an acre) of land, the house is stunning - inside and out.

Featuring Jarrah timber flooring, five bedrooms and three bathrooms, pavilions, a double garage, a multi-purpose sports court, multiple dining areas, fireplaces, curled stairs, and many splashes of colour, the home is beautiful and will surely sell. And, in a design choice that won't surprise fans of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Roof Exterior is designed to represent a cuttlefish.

In July 2022, Red Hot Chili Peppers announced their massive 2023 Australian tour with Post Malone. Playing in stadiums across the country and on two New Zealand dates, the American rock band will promote their two 2022 albums, Unlimited Love, and Return Of The Dream Canteen.

Due to overwhelming demand, they will play a second show at Sydney's Accor Stadium on Saturday, 4 February and Melbourne's Marvel Stadium on Thursday, 9 February. The tour begins in Brisbane at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday, 29 January, before heading off to Sydney and Melbourne and concluding the tour at Perth's Optus Stadium on Sunday, 12 February.

The two albums saw the comeback of the band's seminal line-up, with guitarist John Frusciante and producers Rick Rubin and Ryan Hewitt returning to the fold; Frusciante and Hewitt last worked with Red Hot Chili Peppers on their 2006 album and corresponding tour for Stadium Arcadium.

Red Hot Chili Peppers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012. They have also amassed six Grammy awards and over 22 billion Spotify streams and are the first band to hold the most #1 singles of all time on Alternative Radio with 13 #1 hits.
