Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Welcome to your own magical haven amongst the oaks! This cozy Craftsman bungalow sits in a lush arroyo at Malibou Lake, with lake access, a massive private dock, and use of all of the lake club's exclusive amenities! Nestled at the base of iconic Sugarloaf peak and surrounded by the Santa Monica Mountains, this green gem of a property features heritage oaks, a seasonal stream, and many places to sit and commune with nature! A wraparound rear deck overlooking a party-lit lawn and a flagstone patio provide ample space for entertaining, while double French doors and two sliders give indoor-outdoor access to a solarium-style garden room and a warm, skylit country kitchen with a formidable Wolf range! A lake-view front sitting porch overlooks a second lake-view bistro area paved with flagstones and surrounded by ivy and oaks. The porch's whimsical Dutch door opens to a breezy living and dining room on the 2nd level, with wide-plank pine flooring, vaulted ceiling, and a riverstone fireplace. The adjacent front office overlooks the lake, while the 2nd level bedroom has an ivy and oak hillside view through serene bay windows. The 2nd floor bathroom features artisan vintage tile and a claw foot bathtub. On the 1st floor, the primary bedroom suite has its own front entrance, a lake view front window and sitting area, 2 closets, a kitchenette and fridge, and an adjacent reading nook with sparkling fairy lights. The primary bathroom is equipped with heated towel racks, a shower, a huge soaking tub, and double pedestal sinks. A separate laundry/utility room on the 1st floor features a utility sink, washer & dryer, ample storage and counter space, and a large adjacent crawl space with storage shelves and a third fridge. Two other spacious 1st floor storage areas offer plenty of room to keep your lake toys, garden tools, and other supplies secured. Solar panels on the roof provide power to offset your energy costs. Members of the Malibou Lake Club enjoy swimming, boating, tennis, fishing, and year-round clubhouse activities. The party-lit private dock for this property features self-leveling sea stairs, roses and lavender planters, stunning views of Malibou Creek State Park and the lake club's private island, and is located right next to the lake club's beautiful park for maximum lakeside entertaining potential. And all this is located only 10 minutes from the 101 and all the amenities of Agoura! If you're looking for a lake and forest paradise with a coastal cottage vibe, where songbirds visit in the daytime and owls and frogs serenade you at night, this is the home you've been waiting for!
