Over the decades, Malibu has earned a reputation as a quintessential beach town known for sandy beaches, surf-friendly waves, and dramatic sunsets. At the end of a gated drive in the rolling wooded hills not far from this stretch of legendary coastline, this secluded, secure 1.86-acre estate is a rare, exceedingly private oasis offering a four-bedroom residence, a repurposed barn, a gym, a bocce court, a paddock, and a charming Airstream. The ground is strewn with stately mature trees, established landscaping, and colorful flowering plants. The home features a light-filled living room with hardwood floors, a beamed ceiling, a brick fireplace, and numerous wide windows; a dining room with a wall of glass overlooking and opening to a swath of emerald lawn; a bright eat-in kitchen with superior stainless-steel appliances; a bar area with a wine chiller; bedrooms with built-ins, lofty beamed ceilings, and doors to the property; and baths with both contemporary and vintage fixtures and finishes including a claw-foot soaking tub. Just outside are a sitting area in the shade of tall mature trees, a fire pit in the midst of a lush lawn, swings hanging from sturdy tree branches, and a hot tub in a cloistered grove of trees. Beside the property's versatile equestrian paddock are a vine-covered pavilion and a sports court. The spacious gym boasts a mirrored wall and top-of-the-line equipment; the building also includes a casual media or family room with a wall of built-in storage. The delightful Airstream sleeps four and offers a kitchen, bath, and shower. The cleverly repurposed, stylishly appointed, and the versatile barn is perfect for day-to-day living and dining as well as festive entertaining. It features striking hardwood floors, a towering ceiling with eye-catching beams, space for billiards, an open kitchen with an oversized island, a bar, a lounging and media area, and a covered porch. The loft above is a peaceful bedroom with a rugged wood wall, treetop views, and an en suite bath with a roomy glass-walled shower and distinctive sink carved from stone.
