House Malibu (United-States)

This very private, peaceful, Balinese-style resort estate offers a lifestyle of indoor-outdoor glamor with a sweeping panorama of the ocean and the sparkling Queen's Necklace from every room. Located in ultra-desirable, close-in Big Rock on more than three-quarters of an acre, this one-of-a-kind residence has amenities galore: pool with a water fall and a cabana, a guesthouse, an enormous entertainer's deck with a spa, high beamed ceilings, hardwood and imported stone floors, and sensational landscaping with lawns, fruit orchard, and a fragrant plumeria tree. Designed as a year-round getaway, the home is detailed with decorative Balinese woodwork and finishes for an exotic, tropical atmosphere. The living room, which opens fully to an ocean-view entertainer's deck for alfresco dining and lounging, has a beautiful stone fireplace flanked by large display niches. The adjoining kitchen will satisfy the most demanding chef, with a laundry room/pantry at one end and an ocean-view dining area at the other. The primary suite is a masterpiece of elegant comfort, with gorgeous Balinese woodwork, a vaulted bamboo ceiling, extra-wide sliding doors that open to the deck, and a serene bathroom complete with a custom-tile drain shower and a large ocean-view tub. An office off the primary suite and another bedroom suite also open to the deck. Above the main living area is a large loft with skylights that could serve as an additional sleeping area, a den/family room, or yoga/meditation space. The attic, beautifully finished as a spacious office with garden- and ocean-view windows, could also serve as an art studio. The attached guest house has a separate entrance with an ocean-view deck, a large sitting/sleeping room, a skylight bath, and a kitchenette. Outside, the full-width deck (approximately 3000 square feet) overlooks the heated pool, backyard, and gardens, with ample room for relaxing and entertaining, plus a small gate that opens to a pool slide. The poolside cabana offers another space for gathering, with a covered porch and a restful interior with a bath. This terraced estate is truly a tropical retreat, lush and private and finished with unmatched island flair.
