About This Home

A Zen-Inspired Architectural Retreat in the Heart of Malibu. Discover one of Malibu's most distinctive architectural gems - an Asian-influenced, post-and-beam redwood and walnut sanctuary set on 10 private acres of rolling hills. This custom-designed retreat offers a truly tranquil lifestyle, where panoramic mountain views and a profound connection to nature create a serene, creative haven. The great room features soaring beamed ceilings and expansive windows that flood the home with natural light and frame the majestic landscape. The open kitchen offers Miele appliances while the primary suite is a private sanctuary with sweeping views and direct access to a large deck that wraps around the house, offering wide spaces for entertaining or lounging in the fresh air. Truly an ideal space to unwind, reflect, or ignite your next artistic endeavor, whether it be a screenplay, novel, album, or painting. A versatile loft adds flexibility as a studio, office, or additional sleeping area. Formerly restored, the property exudes creativity and artistic energy. Outdoors, the grounds offer a graceful meditation ramada and matching pavilion bridge set over a seasonal stream; while meandering paths offer walks through your own canyon adorned with redwoods, oaks, seasonal waterfalls, and creeks. With zoning for light agriculture and equestrian use, there's room to expand, create, or cultivate. Ample parking makes entertaining and filming effortless, while proximity to Westlake Village, Malibu beaches, schools, shopping, lakes, golf, and tennis clubs ensures convenience without compromise. Owner has an expired permit for a 1,691sf art barn. Prop is not in Coastal Commission. Many possibilities abound.
