Set just above the sand on a private gated street in Western Malibu, this approximately 5,000-square-foot mid-century residence is a rare blend of architectural significance, and privacy. Restored and reimagined by renowned artist and furniture designer Roy McMakin, the five-bedroom home preserves its original post-and-beam character while introducing custom millwork, cabinetry, tile, built-ins, and furnishings designed specifically for the property. Expansive, high-ceilinged interiors open to a large private yard, pool, patios, and decks with direct ocean views. The flexible layout includes dual primary suites, three additional bedrooms, a spacious kitchen and family room, media room, library, den and motorcycle gallery.A glass-and-timber gym, barrel sauna, outdoor soaking tub, multiple covered terraces, five-car garage, and parking for four additional vehicles complete the property. Mature hedging, advanced security, and direct beach access create an exceptional level of comfort and convenience. A true piece of livable art, this one-of-a-kind Malibu retreat offers museum-worthy design in an extraordinary coastal setting.
