Description
A sanctuary above the sea, this extraordinary architectural estate is a rare expression of luxury, wellness, and complete privacy. Set on over five acres in the serene hills of Malibu, the residence unfolds as a secluded retreat where nature, design, and tranquility exist in perfect harmony. Originally designed and built by architect and surfer Cho Yiu Kwan as his personal residence, the home reflects a deeply intentional connection to its surroundings where form, light, and landscape converge. Recently remodeled, the property now pairs its iconic architectural pedigree with modern refinement and elevated livability. Spanning approximately 8,000 square feet with 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, the home is conceived as a restorative environment inviting stillness, reflection, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Expansive walls of glass dissolve the boundary between interior and landscape, framing sweeping ocean, canyon, and mountain views while bathing each space in natural light and coastal breezes. The architecture is both striking and grounding, echoing the surrounding terrain in form and material, creating a deep connection to the land. Open, flowing living spaces are equally suited for mindful living and elevated entertaining, while private quarters offer a peaceful refuge above the coastline. An elevator servicing all three levels adds a layer of convenience and accessibility, seamlessly connecting each floor of the home. Outdoors, the estate becomes a true wellness compound. A rare ocean-view, lighted tennis court offers the ultimate in recreation, while the expansive grounds invite the creation of walking paths, yoga platforms, meditation gardens, or bespoke spa amenities. A grand motorcourt provides an impressive arrival experience, complemented by guest and staff quarters that ensure comfort, flexibility, and effortless hosting. Fully gated and exceptionally private, the property is accessed via a long, secluded drive, offering a sense of retreat just minutes from Malibu's world-renowned beaches.Beyond its architectural significance, the property presents compelling investor appeal. With its scale, privacy, and resort-like setting, it offers exceptional potential as a boutique wellness retreat, private members sanctuary, or income-generating luxury compound. The estate may also lend itself to premium short-term rental opportunities, capitalizing on Malibu's global demand for exclusive, experiential stays (buyer to verify all use and rental regulations). This is more than a residence, it is a place to reset, recharge, and reconnect. A truly rare offering that combines architectural pedigree, modern luxury, and the serenity of one of Malibu's most coveted canyon settings.
