The home, built in 1955, sits on approximately 40 feet of prime beach frontage and has the added advantage of being located on a very deep, sandy lot. There are two bedrooms upstairs and a bonus room downstairs. This charming beach cottage is the kind of place to use and enjoy while you wait unit you’ve figured out what you’re going to build next.  I’ve visited the home several times and one of its most special features is that everything on the inside is original. The place appears to be stuck in time with its timeless furnishings and art from the early 60′s. The  period-correct kitchen includes an indoor barbecue grill on the side of the living room fireplace. Imagine grilling a steak over smoldering charcoal in your kitchen….a Dean Martin-style martini in one hand, tongs in the other. There are some of those sad clown oil paintings that many of our grandparents had hanging on the wall, and there’s the big sliding glass door, the one your parents always told you not to slam with the mesmerizing locking mechanism. Outside is a modest garden comprised of various succulents accented with a few agaves next to a well tended bed of ice plant. There’s also a perfectly aged wooden beach path leading to the ocean only steps from the home. You can tell that a lot of memories were created here. The home abounds with charm and is one of the last remaining of Malibu’s classic beach bungalows, and for sale at $6.99m.

If you too would like to sit pretty on the West Coast then stop posing and come have a look at this home on Broad Beach. Forget the real estate in the Hamptons where snow, not sand, is what you’ll see in the all winter. Move to Malibu, where sunny winters days can reach 80 degrees.

The authentic east coast style home was built in 1946 making it one of the first homes on Broad Beach. I must say that this home had some of the nicest construction details I had ever seen for a home of the this age. The home has numerous details that give it a feel of being on an enormous luxury yacht. There are large, round, wood-framed window that look like port holes. Some of these windows are even located on walls between two rooms. The main living room has large ceiling beams that are curved and give you the feeling of being inside an ark. In this room you will find a large fire place constructed out of hand gathered stones off the beach.

The actual price of the home is $22,000,000 and the basket ball court next door will run you the extra $14,000,000. You actually get more than a basket ball court, you get an additional APN so you’ll have one less neighbor, an investment property, or a place to build a spare beach house.
