This beautiful home, a time machine of sorts as it hasn’t been touched since 1975, is nestled in the desirable Lower Topanga neighborhood on a cul-de-sac; the post and beam architectural masterpiece boasting sweeping views of the city, flourishing gardens, and a detached guest house.
The dramatic great room features a 20-foot rock fireplace and walls of glass that lead out to a series of decks and patios, inviting the outdoors in. There are three bedrooms downstairs, an office/flex area on the main level, and a loft with bathroom upstairs. The primary suite features an authentic brick fireplace, and opens up to its own deck with panoramic views and gardens.
Outside are private patio areas, pond, sauna, hot tub, diverse mature trees, shrubs, and flowering bushes, along with a separate studio guest house with its own private patios. And there is also a detached children's playhouse and a six-car garage.
And it’s close to PCH and the shops and restaurants in Malibu.
Throw down area rugs for dogs and I could live there... though that far up in the canyon I'd probably be worried about fires.
ReplyDeleteAnd if the fires don't get you, there's always the mudslides and the earthquakes!

ReplyDeleteDitto on the dogs. When we changed
to wood floors here we had to have
rugs made for one dog to get around.
Loverly views!

A couple of rugs and you're good to go.

That place is lovely, Bob, but it looks too nice to be "untouched" since 1975. My house is from 1976 and I still have linoleum and floral wallpaper in my laundry room! Maybe one day it will be considered "vintage" and be in again!! :)
ReplyDeleteI guess they mean they didn't try to modernize it too much; tile counters, all that wood. That's why i love it.
DeleteWho would have thought that a house with that entrance would be so grand? It's fabulous. The views, the lines. And that master bedroom! Damn.
ReplyDeleteI would go live in the tiny house in the backyard, though...
XOXO
The views and the decks and the greenery sold me!
DeleteOh yeah! But I'm drawn to that little guest house.
ReplyDeleteI need more space that that, but if you and SG were to visit ... ?
DeleteLove every inch of this place and thank god it survived the Old Topanga Fire. It would have been a great loss
ReplyDeleteThe house is beautiful but the property and views are amazing.
DeleteI am not a rustic gal but I love it.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see it with out the trick/staged lighting. Has any one found the fridge? Love the outside and the views. One can never have too many windows. The guest house is nice. I I can change the children's playhouse for an adult rumpus room. It's near Malibu. I can invite Cher over, with her latest young boyfriend, for a cocktail or two. I will hold court in the upstairs bedroom with its own deck.
I love the area and the windows and the fireplaces and ... yeah, I love it.
DeleteI'm normally not a fan of open kitchens, but I love everything about this house!
ReplyDeleteI am no fan of tile countertops, but since I get to look out at that view while in the kitchen, I can bite that bullet!
DeleteYep, that's the one for me. It's fabulous!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful house, but I think I'd be living out on those decks most of the time!
DeleteA little to knotty pine for me.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of wood, but all the windows seem to make up for it for me. Those views :::sigh:::
DeleteGorgeous place, but wrong location for me, sweetpea!
