Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in the Malibu Hills, this ivy-covered country cottage offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and sweeping mountain views on a secluded ~½ acre lot. Blending charm with modern upgrades, the home features a designer gourmet kitchen with copper hood and sink, granite island, and a 500-bottle wine refrigerator, along with two wood-burning fireplaces, a mix of tile and wood flooring, and a converted garage gym. Designed for indoor-outdoor living, the expansive grounds include mature citrus trees, a full-length second-floor deck, and multiple entertaining areas. The backyard is a true retreat, highlighted by a 2022 PebbleTec pool and spa with rock waterfalls, outdoor sauna and shower, and a covered patio with retractable walls and heaters. Additional features include fully paid solar, updated HVAC (2025), new main water line (2018), Sonos indoor/outdoor sound system, EV charging, water softening system, two large storage sheds, and a composition shingle roof. Approved plans and permits for an ADU and expansion offer significant upside. Located just minutes from both Malibu and Calabasas, this property combines privacy, luxury, and convenience.
