About this property

Rare opportunity to acquire one of the largest parcels in Sunset Mesa - reportedly the second largest lot in the community spanning over 35,000 square feet with spectacular ocean, Catalina, San Pedro, and mountain views. This exceptional flag lot offers a uniquely expansive and open feel with sweeping outlooks toward the Pacific and surrounding hillsides, and this rare offering provides a remarkable sense of scale and openness rarely found in the neighborhood. The previous residence was approximately 2,140 square feet, with potential for an additional 10% rebuild expansion subject to buyer verification and applicable approvals. Portions of the property include hillside terrain that enhances the natural topography and dramatic coastal setting. An extraordinary opportunity to create a custom residence in one of the Westside's most sought-after coastal communities. Sunset Mesa is a well-established community known for underground utilities, a peaceful setting, and HOA guidelines that help preserve neighborhood character and protect ocean view corridors through height and development restrictions. Conveniently located just above the Getty Villa, with easy access to Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu, and within the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District (SMMUSD). EPA Phase 1 and Phase 2 debris removal have been completed. Buyer is advised to independently verify the accuracy of all information through personal investigations and with the appropriate professionals. Buyers are advised to independently verify all rebuilding and development requirements, including square footage of land, lot lines, permits, development feasibility, Coastal Commission regulations, HOA/CC&Rs, and any applicable ocean view protections within Sunset Mesa. An opportunity to build in a highly desirable coastal enclave where location, views, and long-term value align.
