The Residence
Floor-to-ceiling glass and soaring ceilings draw the Pacific deep into the plan, while mahogany floors run warm underfoot against a material palette of stone, glass, and ocean grey. From nearly every room, the view is the same uninterrupted sweep — Santa Monica Mountains to open water to horizon.
At the center of the home, a Viking Professional kitchen anchors daily life. Outside, the story continues: an infinity-edge pool that appears to spill into the Pacific, ocean-view terraces, dual outdoor kitchens, and a rock waterfall set against the hillside.
Designed at the turn of the millennium and completed in 2007, the residence was conceived as a fusion of art and architecture — and it still reads that way, room after room.

The Setting
ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT TO SCALE
Malibu · California
The property sits on elevated coastline above Deer Creek Road, framed by protected hillside that keeps the neighbors permanent: deer wander through, and the trails behind the ridge belong to hikers and horses. PCH is minutes below — far enough that the ocean is the only sound.

The Kitchen & Interiors
The kitchen holds the center of the home, with the living spaces radiating around it. Mahogany floors run throughout, and floor-to-ceiling glass keeps the Pacific present from nearly every room — the interiors were composed around the water, not just pointed at it.
Outdoor Living
Outside, the pool's infinity edge appears to pour straight into the ocean below. Terraces step along the view line, dual outdoor kitchens carry dinner outdoors on both sides of the house, and a rock waterfall answers the surf from the hillside.
The Private Quarters
Six bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths give the home room to breathe. Upstairs, soaring ceilings lift the private quarters toward the light, and the glass walls do what they do everywhere else here — carry the ocean in.
