Private Malibu compound, just 1/2 block from the ocean. Completely renovated beach cottage with separate detached studio apartment, ready for immediate occupancy. Set back and privately sited above the road, this gated retreat, just across from Las Flores Park. Awash in sunlight courtesy of 2 remote controlled, venting skylights, the living room welcomes you with a wood burning fireplace and warm wood beamed ceiling. French doors open to a wonderful den with a coffered ceiling and custom cabinetry. The crisply appointed kitchen, sure to inspire your inner chef and party host, features stainless steel appliances, soft close wood cabinetry with granite counters, pot filler at the stove, a cozy eat-in nook with a built-in storage bench and direct access out to a private grassy backyard, perfect for sunbathing and al fresco dining. The hotel inspired full bath features a double vanity. Secure parking for 5 cars, courtesy of the gated driveway, the super clean direct access 2 car garage (with Level 2 EV charger) and a separate carport makes this perfect for a car collector or for use as a live/work location where guest parking might be important. Other features include full capacity washer and dryer, a reverse osmosis water filter system, tankless water heater in addition to wi-fi enabled control of the HVAC system, security system and a thoughtfully designed wi-fi enabled exterior fire suppression system. Upstairs, sited above the oversize carport is an immaculately done, jewel-box of a studio with ocean views, a full kitchen & bath and a private rooftop deck (with even bigger ocean views). Perfect as a separate office, guest house or simply additional living space. As recovery and rebuilding along the coast continues this compound could also make an ideally located interim home during any repair work or reconstruction. Malibu is a magical and resilient place. Enjoy it’s best living at this wonderfully appointed slice of heaven!
