Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Embrace the opportunity to own an Architectural Masterpiece in one of Malibu's most beautiful settings. Set on four flat acres in coveted Bonsall Canyon, this elevated property is accessed through two sets of entry gates, and offers total privacy along with breathtaking mountain, canyon, and ocean views. Designed by renowned architect Ed Niles FAIA, the meticulously crafted concrete, steel, and glass residence seamlessly blends world-class modern architecture with the natural beauty of its surroundings. Completed in 2022, the home took nearly 20 years to build, and is an exceptional vision of modernist architecture, set apart from the more common "white box" Contemporaries currently dotting the Southern California Coastline. The home's design springs to life from a huge wing shaped butterfly roof that spans over 7,200 sq. ft. of interior living space and is cantilevered above another 1,500 sq. ft. of stone decks. The entire home is wrapped in solid walls of glass offering stunning views in every direction and erasing the line between indoor and outdoor living. It's calm coastal color pallet, Italian marble floors, artisan hand painted pillars and the infusion of abundant natural light soften the dynamic architecture and evoke a sense of serenity and warmth. The interior space consists of six separate wings spreading out like the fingers of a hand along a long center hall running the length of the structure. Each wing has its own identity and relationship with the surrounding nature. On one wing is a spectacular living room and study, while on another is an open great room combining gourmet chef's kitchen, dining area and family room - all perfect for relaxation and entertainment. Each wing looks out on to the infinity edged pool, landscaped patios, ocean and mountains beyond. They are separated by stone decks and gardens yet visible to each other through the home's translucent glass walls. The luxurious primary bedroom suite is on its own private wing and has a gorgeous spa-like bathroom with glass encased shower, Italian marble soaking tub, and oversized custom-built closets. There are four other bedrooms - all with stunning views. Outdoor amenities include a swimming pool and spa, full-service outdoor kitchen/ BBQ area, dining pavilion, and professional equestrian facilities with 4-stall barn, professional jumping arena, ample pastureland, and ready access to over 400 miles of riding, hiking, and biking trails at the end of Bonsall Canyon. Or, if you prefer the beach, it's just a short golf cart ride away driving safely through a nearby underpass. Plus there are approved plans for two additional guest structures on the property. Don't miss this rare opportunity to enjoy Malibu living at its finest in one of the most architecturally significant properties in Southern California.
