High tide brings the Pacific right up to the base of this designer home in Malibu. Not only is it in the gated, guarded Malibu Colony community, it’s on one of the area’s most exclusive beaches. Custom stone touches throughout make the villa feel like it’s hewn from the landscape, while a glass railing showcases sea views. Follow the staircase down to the sand and walk 7 minutes to Malibu Point.

Stone floors lead out to a waterfront entertaining area covered by a loggia that feels like a flower crown. Settle in to the row of loungers above the waves, have lunch at the sun-splashed courtyard dining area, and at sunset, heat up the barbecue to kick off an evening in the covered alfresco sitting and dining areas. 

The custom details start at the aquarium at the villa’s entrance, and continue right through to the water, where a wall of glass is all that stands between the open-concept living and dining room and the terrace. Stainless steel and black granite complement the ocean views from the fully equipped kitchen, and an adjacent family room has a granite wet bar. But the vistas might be best from the master-suite balcony, which looks out over the flower beds covering the patio to the sea.

Walk from your deck down to the beach or drive less than 5 minutes to 2 other beaches. For shopping, dining, and the occasional celebrity spotting, it’s a 3-minute drive to Malibu Country Mart.
