Behind private gates on more than an acre, this exceptional estate captures the timeless appeal of one of Malibu's most sought-after neighborhoods, where understated architecture, expansive grounds, and effortless indoor-outdoor living come together in perfect balance. The property comprises an approximately 6,300-square-foot single-level main residence with five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths, complemented by a detached 1,000-square-foot guest house. Completing the offering is a coveted key to Riviera III beach access at Little Dume, granting entry to one of Malibu's most exclusive and secluded stretches of coastline. Designed around a dramatic central sightline, the main residence frames views of the pool and surrounding grounds from the moment of arrival. Retractable walls of glass dissolve the boundaries between indoors and out, allowing the great room to flow seamlessly onto the expansive pool terrace. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen and adjoining butler's pantry are thoughtfully designed to accommodate everything from everyday living to effortless entertaining. The floor plan strikes an ideal balance between openness and privacy. The primary suite opens directly to the pool terrace, creating a true resort-like retreat, while a second primary suite occupies its own secluded wing. Three additional ensuite bedrooms provide generous accommodations for family and guests. A richly paneled study, complete with a private garden entrance and adjoining powder room, functions beautifully as a self-contained executive office where clients or visitors can come and go without entering the main living spaces. A dedicated home theater offers the perfect setting for movie nights and relaxed evenings at home. Positioned just below the main residence, the detached guest house lives like a private home of its own, featuring three bedrooms, two baths, a full kitchen, vaulted living and dining spaces, its own laundry, a covered patio, and a private lawn. Equally suited for extended family, guests, staff, a home gym, or a creative studio, it offers exceptional flexibility rarely found in Malibu estates. Outdoors, the grounds are designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A saltwater pool and spa anchor the outdoor living experience, while a separate firepit lounge invites gatherings beneath the stars. Crowning the estate, a rooftop deck showcases sweeping 360-degree views, offering a spectacular setting for sunset cocktails or quiet mornings above the coastline. Modern conveniences complement the property's timeless design, including a solar energy system with battery backup, a Tesla charger, a three-car garage, and generous guest parking, all securely tucked behind private gates.
