Photos: Imagine Dragons band member lists Oakland hills home for $1.3 million
Imagine Dragons bassist Ben McKee and his wife, Mary, have listed their Montclair home in the Oakland hills for $1.295 million.
The modern 2,696-square-foot home has three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The kitchen is fit for a professional chef with two industrial sized faucets and a butcher block workspace. The primary bedroom has lavish updates including a walk-in rain shower and jetted tub. Or step outside onto the adjacent patio to soak in the hot tub. The home’s two decks also offer stunning bay views.
There is plenty of room to entertain or relax on the lush sprawling 12,393-square-foot lot. It’s something that McKee, a Sonoma County native, could appreciate:
“I think the thing I enjoyed the most was simply to sit outside on the front porch and watch the sun set behind the San Francisco skyline as the red tail hawks left their perches for the day and were replaced by the great horned owls that call to each other into the night,” he wrote in a release.
He says he has made memories at the property he will always treasure. “From recording segments for cooking shows with Ming Tsai and Paris Hilton in the professional quality kitchen, rolling out dough on the butcher board counter tops, to composing music with the doors open to a refreshing breeze, enjoying the quiet solitude of a dead end road in the hills, there have been so many things that I look back on with fondness.”

Imagine Dragons is one of the world’s best-selling music artists and the first rock band to have four songs — “Radioactive,” “Demons,” “Believer,” and “Thunder” — surpass 1 billion streams each.
