More Insights

Built in 1994 (31 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1994, the property has clearly undergone an extensive, high-end renovation within the last 5 years, as evidenced by the modern, virtually new kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances, and contemporary finishes. The bathrooms are luxurious with large format tiles, floating vanities, freestanding tubs, and modern fixtures. Hardwood flooring is prevalent throughout, and lighting is updated to recessed fixtures. The overall aesthetic is current, high-quality, and shows no signs of deferred maintenance, meeting the criteria for an 'excellent' condition score.

About this home

Malibu gated estate with panoramic ocean views. Set on 4.8 private acres overlooking the coveted Encinal Bluffs, one of Malibu's most beautiful and sought-after stretches of coastline, this extraordinary estate blends coastal luxury with scale, privacy, and modern comfort. For car enthusiasts, there are presently 8 covered parking spaces, and there could be 10 with a car jack system. Just steps from the sand at La Piedra Beach, a long private drive leads to a residence offering over 10,000 square feet under roof, where soaring cathedral ceilings and walls of glass frame breathtaking vistas of the Pacific from every room. The home is designed for both everyday living and unforgettable entertaining, with an expansive open-concept kitchen flowing into multiple living and dining spaces, and a magnificent great room that can comfortably host seventy-five guests. With six bedrooms and five full and two half bathrooms, including two ocean-view master suites, the estate provides abundant room for family and guests. The nearly 2,000-square-foot finished lower level includes a private office, a climate-controlled wine cellar, and direct drive-in access, allowing motorcycles or other prized collectibles to be showcased seamlessly within the living space and making it perfectly suited for a car or motorcycle enthusiast. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with multiple patios and terraces that invite sunset gatherings, a resort-style pool with a waterfall, spa, and sun decks, and lush, park-like landscaping. A large orchard filled with mature fruit trees enhances the estate's sense of tranquility, while garage parking for up to nine vehicles and a motor court accommodating more than fifteen vehicles make the property ideal for collectors or large-scale entertaining. Perfectly perched overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this rare offering combines the seclusion of a hilltop retreat with the coveted walkability to Malibu's beaches. With its scale, privacy, and exceptional amenities, this gated compound represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true Malibu lifestyle estate.

Potential for System Updates (Year Built 1994): While offering modern comfort, the 1994 construction date suggests that some core systems or finishes, though well-maintained, may eventually require updates to meet the latest luxury standards.
Specialized Appeal May Limit Buyer Pool: The property's highly specialized features for car/motorcycle enthusiasts, while a significant strength for a niche market, could narrow the overall pool of potential buyers who may not fully utilize or value these unique amenities.
