About this property
Set on approximately one acre, this private contemporary Malibu residence offers sweeping ocean, coastline and whitewater views, with plenty of space and room to breathe. Elevated above Broad Beach and tucked away from PCH, the property enjoys a quiet sense of escape while remaining conveniently close to all the best Malibu has to offer. Designed around the view, expansive windows draw the ocean, sky and changing coastal light into every room. Three en-suite bedrooms and four bathrooms are complemented by a comfortable living room, separate library/den, dining room and expansive kitchen, creating an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, a generous center island and breakfast seating, with the Pacific Ocean providing an ever-changing backdrop. Outdoors, multiple patios, lawn areas and gathering spaces invite relaxed coastal living - morning coffee overlooking the sea, afternoons enjoying the ocean breeze and sunshine, and evenings watching the sun disappear over the Pacific and the stars emerge above. An ocean-view Jacuzzi offers an especially inviting place to take in the sunset or simply unwind at the end of the day. Another unique feature lies below the main residence, where a large, additional pad offers intriguing potential for an ADU, guest house, studio, gym or other improvement (subject to applicable approvals). Private and beautifully positioned above the coast, the property offers an appealing alternative to a more conventional neighborhood setting, combining a large lot with compelling ocean views and the potential to create additional space and value. Conveniently located just minutes to Broad Beach, Zuma Beach, Point Dume, Trancas Country Market, local schools, surf breaks and miles of trails, this is a special opportunity to enjoy the privacy, beauty and relaxed coastal lifestyle of Malibu at a sensational price.
