Originally designed by iconic architects Buff & Hensman and reimagined through a meticulous multi-year rebuild, this residence blends mid-century heritage with modern coastal luxury. Walls of glass, exposed beams, and natural materials create light-filled interiors that connect seamlessly to outdoor terraces and a heated private pool. Set within the guard-gated Malibu Colony, the home also includes access to a private beachfront parcel reserved for select residences and a signature MOKE for exploring the coast in style.
Thoughtfully designed by Buff & Hensman, this two-level residence reflects a timeless California aesthetic rooted in post-and-beam architecture. Natural materials, exposed structure, and expansive glazing create a warm, light-filled environment, while the layout encourages an easy connection between interior living spaces and the outdoors.
The home offers five bedrooms and five full bathrooms, complemented by a great room, formal living room, dining area, office, pantry, walk-in closets, and a Jack-and-Jill configuration. Furnished interiors include built-ins, a fireplace, and a full appliance suite with dishwasher, refrigerator, range/oven, microwave, washer, dryer, barbeque, and bar ice maker. Central heating and air conditioning provide year-round comfort.
Outdoor living is centered around a private heated pool, gated entry, and parking for up to five vehicles, including a two-car garage. Positioned on an 8,267 square foot lot within the guard-gated Malibu Colony, the property also captures ocean, mountain, and golf course views.

All of our homes have white hotel-style linens, white towels, toiletries for our guests, and well stocked kitchens with high-end appliances. Amid COVID-19, our cleaning intensified: surfaces wiped with hot water and disinfectants. All towels and linens washed, regardless of appearance; many hotels don’t. Door handles and high-touch spots get extra care. Staff wears masks, gloves, and shoe coverings. Our exceptional cleaning surpasses CDC standards.
