January 24: California Cribs

California is home to some of the most incredible properties in the world. And we know you like to watch as much as we do, so each week we’re taking a peek inside famous homes and listings in our recurring feature—California Cribs. 

This week, we’re taking a peek into a modern Malibu estate designed by architect William Hefner.

Located in a gated community on a private road, with 88 feet of beach frontage, this envious location is steps from the beach and boasts 180 views of the ocean from the expansive deck. Featuring three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths across 5,507 square feet of interior living space.

As you enter through the pivot glass door into the stone foyer with interiors designed by Billy Cotton, the spacious living room draws you in. The sliding glass doors open to the expansive deck to enjoy indoor-outdoor living. Experience a one-of-a-kind kitchen equipped with Miele and Gaggenau appliances, floating shelves, a built-in keg, wine fridges, and a large walk-in pantry. With skylights overhead, an ocean view breakfast nook and additional island bar seating, sliding glass doors open to a BBQ island, and an outdoor dining area. 

The owner’s suite is a masterpiece spanning the entire top floor for the ultimate privacy. Wood floors and glass walls provide a remarkable backdrop to display your art collection on the built-in shelving throughout the room. The owner’s ensuite boasts uncompromising quality with a Toto washlet, freestanding tub, resort-style shower and stone countertops. The suite is complete with a large walk-in closet and a wrap-around balcony. 

The media room features wood-paneled walls and doors leading to the deck, complete with a lounge area, jacuzzi, additional dining spaces and heaters. A meticulously landscaped yard with low-maintenance succulents provides year-round beauty to enhance the outdoor spaces. In addition, to a two-car garage, guest park area, and gated entry, the home is equipped with security cameras on the property, a full-house alarm system and a built-in sound system.

California Listings expert Chris Cortazzo holds the listing, which is being offered at $55 million. More information can be found here.
