About this property

First time on the market in nearly 50 years, this thoughtfully built and well maintained Spanish-style Malibu Park home has been lovingly cared for by its original owner-builder and awaits its next chapter. Set on approximately three-quarters of an acre, the property captures some of the most expansive and beautiful ocean views in Malibu, stretching from the Santa Monica Bay and city lights to sunsets over the Channel Islands. The generous primary suite is a private retreat, featuring a sitting area, walk-in closet, and ensuite bath with shower, all oriented toward the spectacular views. Additional second-level bedrooms provide ample space for family, guests, or a home office. Soaring ceilings, arched windows, and hardwood floors add warmth and character throughout, while the home's elevated setting takes full advantage of Malibu's iconic coastal landscape. An oversized three-car garage offers exceptional flexibility, with room for vehicle lifts, multiple cars, a workshop, or space for the enthusiast to tinker at home. Lovingly cared for by the same family for nearly five decades, this Malibu Park property offers a rare combination of history, scale, exceptional views, and value. Ideally located near Trancas Shopping Center, Zuma Beach, and Malibu High School, it presents an opportunity to own a distinctive home in one of Malibu's best ocean view​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌ neighborhoods.
