Description
Almost three acres of privacy surround this stunning Central Malibu residential compound. With restrained modernist styling and a lavish appreciation for materials and light, architects Charles G. Kanner and Stephen H. Kanner created a unique estate of rare size and quality. Panoramic ocean and Catalina views highlight expansive indoor and outdoor settings for tranquil living and formal or casual entertaining. Set behind gates, with low, meadow-like landscaping, and a long, circular drive, the property's abundant amenities include an office with a separate entrance, a large pool, walls of glass, beautiful wood floors, and a self-contained apartment. The living room, with double-height ceilings, fireplace, wet bar, and built-in cabinets, has mitered glass windows to the ceiling and sliding doors opening onto the ocean view yard and pool area. Across a short hallway, the ocean-view dining room also opens to the yard. The kitchen/family room is an inviting, open space with a tray ceiling, stunning views, and additional sliding glass doors to the patio, lawn, and pool. The kitchen has an island with bar seating plus a breakfast area, generous pantry cabinets, and top-quality appliances, while the family room has a built-in desk, a fireplace, and ample room for large gatherings. There are two bedrooms and an office with a separate entrance on the main floor, each with ocean views and sliding glass doors to the yard and pool area. Upstairs, there are three en-suite bedrooms, including the tranquil primary retreat with wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows, fireplace, sitting area, dual walk-in closets, spa-style bath, and large private deck. The backyard provides abundant space for recreation and entertaining, including a pool, Jacuzzi, fire pit, huge lawn, and expansive patio space for dining and lounging. Across from the main house is a four-car garage, and upstairs is a private studio apartment of approximately 750 square feet complete with kitchen, living/dining room, bathroom, and large ocean-view deck. The property's additional amenities include five-zone air conditioning, a newer roof, and security system. Created for a lifestyle of contemporary elegance and comfort, this exceptionally private estate is convenient to beaches, hiking and biking trails, Point Dume, and the many dining and shopping attractions of Malibu.
