Description

Perched in one of eastern Malibu's desirable enclaves overlooking the coastline, this Skylar Brown, AIA architectural residence captures sweeping views of La Costa Beach and the Pacific beyond. Designed with solid concrete construction, the home reflects a thoughtful architectural approach that balances strength, clean lines, and a refined coastal sensibility. In a market where opportunities in this part of Malibu are limited, this property represents one of the few homes currently available for sale in eastern Malibu, offering a compelling opportunity along this sought -after stretch.Inside, soaring ceilings and an open-concept floor plan create a dramatic yet welcoming atmosphere. At the center of the home, the great room serves as the heart of the residence, where walls of glass frame ocean views from nearly every angle. This expansive space seamlessly integrates the living, dining, and kitchen areas, allowing natural light to fill the home throughout the day while creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow to surrounding decks, ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying Malibu's sunsets. Views extend from Palos Verdes and the Queen's Necklace to Catalina Island, creating a beautiful coastal backdrop. The home features five bedrooms plus a dedicated ocean-view office well suited for working from home, along with a comfortable family/media room that complements the home's generous living and entertaining spaces. Beyond the architecture, the lifestyle here is truly special. Ownership includes rights to the La Costa Beach Club along with access to the community tennis courts, offering the rare benefit of private beach access while enjoying the character of this established neighborhood. Convenience is another key advantage. The home offers quick access to Santa Monica in just minutes, while being close to Webster Elementary School and the newly rebuilt, state-of-the-art Malibu Middle and High School campus, highly regarded school district. Positioned between coastal serenity and city access, the home is also located near Malibu destinations including Nobu, Soho House, Clark's, and the growing collection of boutiques and restaurants in central Malibu. Architecturally distinctive and well located, this property presents an opportunity to experience Malibu living with ocean views, recognized design pedigree, beach club access, and convenient proximity to both Malibu and the Westside.
