About this property
Set on a generous 7,784-square-foot flat lot in the sought-after Sunset Mesa coastal enclave, 3612 Surfwood Road presents an opportunity to create a home tailored to your vision in one of the area's most desirable coastal settings. The property originally featured a single-level, four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence spanning approximately 2,230 square feet. With potential for views, the expansive lot offers an exciting canvas for a thoughtfully designed rebuild. Sunset Mesa is an established community valued for its peaceful atmosphere, underground utilities, and HOA guidelines designed to preserve neighborhood character and protect ocean-view corridors through height and development restrictions. Ideally positioned just above the Getty Villa, the property offers convenient access to Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and Santa Monica, while being served by the Santa MonicaMalibu Unified School District (SMMUSD). EPA Phase 1 and Phase 2 debris removal have been completed. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify all rebuilding requirements, including permits, Coastal Commission regulations, HOA/CC&Rs, and development feasibility. An exceptional opportunity to build in a premier coastal enclave where generous land, view potential, a coveted location, and long-term value come together. Neither Seller nor Broker/Agents guarantee the accuracy of the square footage, lot size, permits or other information concerning the conditions or features of the property. Buyer is advised to independently verify the accuracy of all information (including square footage) through personal inspections and with the appropriate professionals. Views, if any, are based on current conditions and drone imagery taken at the time of listing. Future construction or development may impact views. Buyer to independently verify. See DOCS for Offer Guideline.
