Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Perched high above the Malibu coastline, this house is built entirely around the Pacific – floor-to-ceiling glass walls dissolve the boundary between the living space and the ocean horizon, while every bedroom has its own balcony or terrace to wake up to canyon and sea views. Outside, a heated pool and spa sit among lush greenery, and as the light fades, the clifftop fire pit becomes the natural gathering point. Zuma Beach is a ten-minute drive when you want sand underfoot, but with a sauna, hot tub, and gym on-site, there's little reason to leave.
