Description

Spectacular sun-drenched modern, remodeled and furnished 2,500 square foot home perched above the gorgeous coastline of Malibu. Nestled in a corner lot in highly sought-after neighborhood perfectly located near the Getty Villa, this estate is only a short, incredibly scenic drive along the Pacific Coast into the center of Malibu in one direction and even closer to the shopping, dining and convenience of the Palisades Village, Brentwood and Santa Monica in the other direction, with LAX an easy 30-45 minutes away.

Generously framed by walls of windows and sliding doors that create unparalleled natural light, this home enjoys serene mountain landscapes and remarkably golden hues as the afternoon draws towards sunset. Vaulted cathedral ceilings and natural wood beams elevate the spacious, loft-style kitchen and great room, while the bedrooms enjoy tranquil separation and quiet. A chic private sanctuary awaits In the gated backyard, where a designer, sun-drenched pool and spa are framed by the exotic richness of an Ipe Brazilian wood deck.

This home is perfect for a professional couple or individual seeking a retreat from everyday hectic urban living but wanting to remain close enough for incredibly easy shopping, dinners out, appointments and other activities in some of LA's most upscale neighborhoods.

Owner pays for water/trash. Renter pays gas, electric, internet, cable/satellite TV. No smoking. Maximum of one (1) small pet (less than 15 lbs.) allowed.

    "Do not commute - I am now retired Commuting is a nightmare in the AM as it is always bumper to bumper It would make a huge improvement if they would sink the lights or open the center lane southbound and facilitate the traffic flow. If it rains you can guarantee that the storm drains haven’t been cleared as they have never been on a maintenance schedule in the past forty years I have lived here so they always backup and cause the highway to have huge flooded area resulting in some clown going to fast and causing an accident. The first rains always seem to cause the signal lights to go out too! People seem to forget that PCH is one of the year long most heavily used highways in the country. The first rains always mix with the motor oil on the road making it VERY DANGEROUS yet people forget to slow down thus more accidents than normal. Summertime brings thousands of tourists so forget trying to go in to town. If a weekend is nice weather you can guarantee it’s bumper to bumper coming into Malibu in the AM and even worse from 3 PM on going back to town. If CAL trans does any work they always set up before their allocated 8:30 AM time causing more “looky-loo” slowing !"
