About this home

Welcome to 25665 Buckhorn Drive. Surrounded by wraparound mountain views, this extraordinary intimate mid-century hideaway offers a rare balance: design without excess, privacy without isolation, and a lifestyle that feels quietly extraordinary; where architecture, nature, and daily life move in harmony.Inside: light, and texture guide the experience. French white oak floors, a soft skylight glow, sculptural Flos lighting, and tailored linen window coverings create a classic California calm; timeless, grounded, and deeply livable. The living and dining area open to floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows, flooding the home with natural light and framing awe-inspiring mountain views, while a classic mid-century fireplace anchors the space for cozy winter nights. The remodeled kitchen is equally beautiful and functional, featuring a German-made Leicht kitchen in chic white oak, Calcutta marble countertops, a Bertazzoni range, and built-in Fisher & Paykel appliances, finished with a custom white oak coffee bar designed for slow mornings and meaningful moments. The primary suite is a true sanctuary. Herringbone oak floors, a reeded white oak vanity topped in leathered quartzite, bronze fixtures, and enveloping stone surfaces open directly to a private cedar and ipe meditation deck with a copper outdoor shower; an everyday ritual of air, water, and stillness. Outdoors, life unfolds naturally across more than half an acre of flat, zen-inspired grounds, intentionally landscaped for quiet moments and effortless gathering. A sweeping ipe deck extends your living space and opens to exceptional mountain views and lush grassy backyard. While organic landscaping, olive and fruit trees, lavender, Japanese maple, bamboo, native butterfly gardens, and a hand-carved limestone fountain, create an atmosphere that feels both curated and effortless. Barefoot mornings, birdsong afternoons and star filled evenings define the rhythm here. Thoughtfully and intentionally designed, this home is the personal residence of a renowned Los Angeles architect and designer, where every material choice, sightline, and detail reflects a deep sense of craft and quiet beauty. Set within the close-knit community of Monte Nido, where neighbors wave, trails begin at your doorstep, and the pace feels refreshingly human. This perfect-weather enclave sits within the award-winning Las Virgenes School District, and just 10 minutes to Malibu or Calabasas. This is a home that invites you to slow down and stay awhile.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =30000, other record lot size in square feet = 3203.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant drawback for buyers in Southern California, especially during warmer months, potentially requiring a future installation.
Modest Interior Square Footage for Price Point: With 1607 sqft, the interior living space is relatively modest for a $2 million property in the Calabasas/Malibu area, which might not meet the expectations of all luxury buyers seeking larger homes.
Niche Architectural Style Appeal: While exquisitely designed, the 'intimate mid-century hideaway' aesthetic, being a personal architect's residence, caters to a specific taste and might not universally appeal to all potential buyers, potentially limiting the market pool.
