Mary Lynn Rajskub, who plays computer whiz Chloe O'Brian opposite Kiefer Sutherland's Jack Bauer on Fox's "24," bought a remodeled two-bedroom, 800-square-foot Venice bungalow in 2005 for $899,000. She then moved to be closer to the Valley studios and leased the bungalow to Mia Kirsch-

ner, who played Mandy in seven episodes of "24." After Kirschner moved out in January, Rajskub put the place on the market for $1.4 million.

Before Rajskub bought it, the bungalow had been turned into a contemporary-style home with 2 1/2 bathrooms and a shower with mosaic tiles. Natural hues of gray, white and black were used to create a serene environment. The house also has a detached recreation room with a half-bath.

Rajskub, 36, appeared in the movies "Little Miss Sunshine," "Legally Blonde 2" and "Dude, Where's My Car?" Kirschner, 33, starred in "The L Word," a 2004 Showtime series about a group of lesbian friends. Robin Walpert of Sotheby's International Realty, Santa Monica, has the listing.

Mike has worked on such albums with the Beastie Boys as "To the 5 Boroughs" (2004).
