2016 Mount Prospect Dr, Topanga, CA, 90290
About This Home
Welcome to a place that feels unmistakably Topanga--creative, grounded, and completely your own. Tucked into the Santa Monica Mountains, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat is more than a home--it's a sanctuary where nature, design, and lifestyle exist in perfect harmony. Just minutes from Malibu's coastline and Calabasas conveniences, yet worlds away in energy, this is canyon living at its finest. Step through the custom wood entry into a space filled with natural light, warmth, and intention. Expansive windows frame sweeping mountain views, bringing the outdoors in at every turn. The home carries a soulful, bohemian character--effortless, inviting, and deeply connected to its surroundings. The primary suite looks out across the canyon, offering a peaceful backdrop to both start and end your day. The outdoor experience is where this property truly comes alive. A spacious wraparound deck, crafted from Brazilian walnut, creates multiple areas to gather, relax, and take in golden sunsets and starlit skies. Just below, a grounded spa is perfectly positioned to overlook what can only be described as a view of a lifetime--an intimate, immersive vantage point where the canyon stretches endlessly in front of you. It's the kind of setting that slows everything down. Thoughtfully updated for modern living, the home includes new copper plumbing, a new electrical panel with updated wiring, a serviced roof, and fresh interior and exterior paint--allowing for a seamless, move-in-ready experience. Solar panels add efficiency and sustainability, while a built-in Tesla charger and whole-home reverse osmosis water filtration system bring everyday comfort in a way that aligns with the Topanga lifestyle. A detached third bedroom offers flexibility for whatever inspires you--whether it's a private office, art studio, guest suite, or creative space. And then there's Topanga itself. A one-of-a-kind community where mornings can start with a hike or yoga, afternoons include a stop at the local market or café, and evenings often end with live music, good food, and familiar faces. With everyday essentials just minutes away, you rarely need to leave the canyon--unless it's for a quick drive to the beach. For those who value privacy, creativity, nature, and a true sense of place--this is where it all comes together.
