Description
Some of Point Dume's most extraordinary properties are defined by their setting. Others by their history. This iconic blufftop estate is distinguished by both, carrying a remarkable artistic legacy all its own.Set behind private gates on over one acre, the property offers exceptional privacy, breathtaking coastline views, and coveted Riviera III beach keys. A generous motor court accommodates approximately a dozen guest vehicles, while a separate service entrance provides rare convenience for staff and estate operations, an exceptional amenity in one of Malibu's most treasured enclaves.The residence features six bedrooms, including four on the main level, a secluded primary suite, and separate guest or staff accommodations. A private ocean view office perched above the home offers an inspiring space for work . The floor plan is thoughtfully arranged for both privacy and effortless living.Mature trees and professionally landscaped gardens create a serene setting, where a Moorish fountain gently cascades into the spa beside a tranquil lily pond. An expansive oceanfront lawn, an uncommon feature along Malibu's blufftop coastline provides an extraordinary setting for entertaining, recreation, or simply taking in the panoramic views.Inside, soaring beamed ceilings and expansive walls of glass fill the principal living spaces with natural light while framing sweeping ocean views.Long associated with the legendary Frank Zappa, the estate reflects a remarkable artistic provenance while offering an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Point Dume's truly iconic coastal residences.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers, staff and parents are welcoming, inclusive and easy to communicate with. Truly the best choice for our kids. The academics are outstanding. The student population is fairly small which means everyone knows everyone. The only downside to that is that the sports teams and theater often have to do with less participants than the larger urban schools.Parent Review2y ago - Malibu Elementary

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe are new to the School and our daughter. is attending Kindergarten. We originally enrolled her in Private School due to the same concerns the parent below reported. We heard about the New Principal and also the change in environment because. of. the two schools coming together. We had the opportunity to meet and talk to the New Principal and he truly is and has been amazing for our School. He has really shown tremendous leadership and support to the kids , teachers and parents. He's creating a positive culture! This School's energy is completely different from what I experienced during the Open House earlier this year. This is not PDMSS anymore, this is now MALIBU ELEMENTARY SCHOOL and it has tremendous heart and so many. great programs being lead by the teachers. My daughter is already identifying sight words and working. out word math problems. She loves her teacher and her environment. The School is only as good as the community it's in. PARENTS, TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATION. If all can work together there is no stopping greatness. I am experiencing that first hand and for rude children, I have not experienced that. What I can say is as parents it's our job to raise our kids with respect, humility and empathy.Parent Review6y ago - Malibu Middle
