Welcome to Villa La Paloma, an iconic Point Dume estate showcasing the elegance and scale of Montecito living within one of Malibu's most coveted coastal enclaves. Set behind wrought iron entry and exit gates on a rare 1.4-acre double-wide lot, this six-bedroom residence blends European coastal inspiration with the relaxed sophistication of California luxury. Located a shell's throw from the beach, this rare offering has been owned by one family for the past 35 years. Dramatic architecture unfolds upon entry, with soaring beamed ceilings and light-filled living spaces designed for both grand entertaining and effortless everyday living. The living room flows seamlessly into a spacious gourmet kitchen featuring an expansive marble island with breakfast bar, seating areas, a signature fireplace centerpiece, built-in bar, dining area, and stairs leading to a wine cellar. All entertainment areas indoor and out are complemented by integrated Sonos audio. The main level hosts a serene primary suite with a luxurious spa-like bath, two guest bedrooms, one of which is being used as a private office with direct garden access. The mezzanine-level of the home can be used as a bedroom or study while enjoying ocean views. The west wing of the home offers 3 additional bedrooms, two of which combine to create a private apartment with its own entrance and exit. A separate game room with pool table opening to an intimate interior courtyard complete the west wing. French doors lead to all levels of outdoor living. An outdoor entertainment center including a Lynx built-in barbecue, wine and beer refrigerator, cocktail bar, and outdoor television create a resort environment. The flat parklike grounds feature a pool and spa adorned with hand-painted tiles, multiple lounge and seating areas, flowing fountains, a lush lawn, meditation and Zen gardens, a private orchard and a labyrinth beneath the watchful gaze of a giant Buddha. The additional amenity of generous parking for ten cars or more on the property make entertaining a breeze. Just moments from world-class surfing beaches and the Point Dume Headlands, known for breathtaking views and seasonal whale watching, Villa La Paloma offers privacy, scale, and timeless coastal living.
