The Malibu Real Estate Blog

There are two homes in Malibu for sale that are worth seeing if you like modern architecture and jetliner ocean views.
The first home in Malibu that I’m a huge fan of is the listing at 27312 Winding Way. This one of a kind modern home is set in to the side of your very own private mountain with views looking over Paradise Cove and the bluffs of Point Dume. This is the home you buy if you want to be like Tony Stark in his Malibu Iron Man House. I’m not kidding when I say that this home has a similar views to what you’d see from a plane a 10,000 feet flying over Malibu. Also, if you need privacy and security, it’s got that too with only an occasional deer breaching the perimeter. It hit the Malibu real estate market at over $8m is now a deal at $6,750,000.

For  that price you get 37 acres of land with the home located on the top of a mountain with 360 degrees views of the ocean, valley, and city. If you want to be king of the mountain, then there might not be any finer home than this one. The home for sale is located in the middle on Malibu’s burgoning wine country along the Kanan corridor. You may have seen a few times as you get close to the tunnels, a castle-like structure on the high peak among thousands of grape vines. There is an invite only  private showing on Thursday where I will post live updates via Twitter about the scene, the food, and if it’s really worth $65,000,000. Pics to come as soon as they are posted! There are only two other listings in the MLS that are higher priced than this. One for  $72m and one for $75m! Tomorrow I’ll post write about the top 5 most expensive listings in the area.

A new listing hit the Malibu Real Estate market this morning with an asking price of $27,000,000. The 1 story Fred LLoyd Wright design sits on 5 acres of coastal bluff directly above the Pacific with it’s own private trail down to the sand. There are currently a dozen or more listed and unlisted properties for sale in Malibu over $15,000,000. Many will set new price records if they sell. Call for showings 310 699 8428

It’s not often that you see a house like this for under $3,000,000 on Point Dume in Malibu. 2 years ago this price got you a tear down ranch house. Here’s the low down. The house is completely remodeled, has a good size yard with a large lawn, an nice ocean view, is close to Point Dume Marine Science Elementary School, and best of all …..a beach key to a private beach. At $2,495,000 It’s a smoking deal! Call me for more information about “Malibu Real Estate”. 310 699 8428

If you thought Malibu real estate prices were sky high how about a 18000 Sq. Ft. town house on the Upper East Side for $64 million! The pricey abode has 30 rooms, 15 bedrooms, 17 bathrooms, 17-foot ceilings, and a rooftop garden with grand views.  If it sells it will break the previous record high sales price set  by the sale of the $53 million dollar Harkness Mansion on East 75th Street. Malibu’s highest price listing comes in at $75 million. The recent sale of a Carbon Beach home in the $55 million dollar range sets a new beach-side sales record.There are two large projects being built now that could turn in to Malibu’s first $100 million dollar listings if the gilded age continues. New York real estate companies are claiming that they haven’t seen this kind of sales frenzy since the dot-com days of 2000.  The number of apartments the sold above $10 million have more than tripled since 2006.  What could this mean for Malibu? Well my guess is that if you can afford a  Manhattan condo for $10 million, then a Malibu Road beach house for the same price might be pretty tempting, especially during a 70 degree California “winter”.   

While the under $3,000,000 luxury market for homes seems to be slowing down, the growing demand for high-end finished products within the Malibu real estate market continues to be met with new homes such as this one with a listing price of $25,000,000.  This stunning East Coast traditional is situated on the cliffs of Point Dume with a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean.  The home sets a new record asking price for this section of ocean view bluff located on Birdview Street and will most likely elevate the value of all the neighboring properties when a sale is finalized. Competing for high-end buyers are two other listings: 7049 Birdview at $19,950,000 and 7307 Birdview at$11,250,000.  The highest sales price achieved on Birdview closed around $13,000,000.
The home was built by Albino Construction, known for building the highest quality homes that are frequently purchased by buyers from the entertainment industry.  It features 7 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms with 8756 Sq. Ft. on little over one acre of prime Malibu soil. There is an infinity edge pool, expansive ocean views, and direct beach access via a private gate with your own path to the sand. If you love the homes in the Hamptons, the weather in Southern California, and can afford to buy a small, private island, then you’ve found your perfect home in highly sought after Malibu.
