PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

An idyllic blend of moderne elegance, open, light-infused design, and majestic ocean and island vistas create the perfect setting for a lifestyle of gracious comfort and impressive entertaining. The all-custom, all en-suite estate sits behind gates on a picturesque knoll of approximately one acre, where it commands sweeping views of the Pacific, canyons, and verdant hillsides. The meticulously designed and landscaped Mediterranean exterior opens into a grand-scale residence of exceptional quality and detail. A gorgeous formal entry hall sets the tone, with double-height chandelier ceilings, travertine floors with a large tile medallion, clerestory windows, and a moderne-style wrought iron railing following the curved stairway to the upper floor. Ocean-view rooms, awash with natural light, open off the round foyer with easy flow between rooms and wide doorways opening to the ocean-view entertaining deck just outside. The elegantly furnished formal living room is a study in tranquility, with a deep tray ceiling and a double-sided fireplace with ornate mantelpiece. On the other side of the fireplace is a sitting/family room, which steps up to the chandelier dining room. This lovely room has a large built-in display and storage cabinet and opens to a mountain-view side patio. Along a curved hallway where it has easy access to the foyer, living, family, and dining rooms is a handsome wet bar with granite countertop. The ocean- and mountain-view kitchen is designed for today's chef, with top-of-the-line appliances, an island with granite countertop and chandelier, a walk-in pantry, and a built-in desk. Completing the home's main level is a powder room and a spacious ocean-view guest suite that could be a second primary suite. At the top of the carpeted stairs, there are three magnificent ocean-view bedroom suites, including the primary. This serene retreat has deep tray ceilings, a private ocean-view balcony with room for lounging, a magnificent spa-style bath, a walk-in closet, and a dual-sided fireplace shared with a private sitting room. Also on this upper level is a laundry room and another balcony that overlooks the front yard, the ocean, and beautiful sunsets. Returning to the foyer, near the bottom of the stairs there is a small, elegant reading nook. Wrapped in views that start at the front gate, the home has a peaceful front yard with a grassy lawn, mature trees, and room for relaxation. At the sides and back of the house, a deep wraparound deck features an outdoor kitchen, lounging, and dining areas with portable heaters and lamps, and views, views, views. The home has a two-car garage plus driveway guest parking and is also equipped with security and sound systems, fire sprinklers, a filtered tankless water system, and a central vacuum. With abundant privacy, this stunning residence is located just minutes from beaches, trails, and all the dining and shopping highlights of central Malibu. Available for lease for $19,000 per month.
