A Private Hilltop Sanctuary with Ocean, Canyon, and Mountain Views. Nestled in the tranquil hills of Malibu, this exceptional 3-acre property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and inspired living. Set at the end of a long, gated drive, the residence captures sweeping views of the canyons, mountains and as far as the eye can see to ocean views of Point Dume; all in an ever-changing backdrop of light, color, and serenity. From the moment you arrive, the setting feels worlds away, yet it's only minutes from the heart of Malibu and an easy drive to Los Angeles. The home's design embraces its surroundings, with expansive windows and inviting outdoor spaces that encourage connection with nature. Meandering pathways lead through lush gardens, vegetable beds, orchard gardens, tranquil sitting areas, and a cascading waterfall that creates a peaceful soundtrack to daily life. The backyard offers the perfect retreat for entertaining or quiet reflection, featuring a sparkling pool, barbecue area, and wide-open vistas that inspire relaxation and renewal. Inside, the residence spans approximately 4,809 square feet, offering generous living spaces ideal for families, guests, or those who work from home. The entire upper level is devoted to a private primary suite; a true sanctuary with its own sitting area, office, and oversized media or game room. The lower level includes a dedicated two-bedroom wing and a separate guest suite, providing privacy and flexibility for visiting friends or extended stays. More than a home, it is a lifestyle, a peaceful, spiritual escape surrounded by nature, where the rhythm of the ocean breeze and the stillness of the canyon create a sense of balance and calm rarely found close to the city.
