  • Pulling off of Malibu Road, one drives through a set of water features and is greeted by a pair of bronze entry gates; you have arrived at the Knoll. As the gates open you are afforded a hint of the residence at the top of the hill. The house slowly reveals itself as you ascend the driveway.

  • You are first greeted by the sculptural meditation pavilion, which grounds the main living area and sits within the pool which constantly acts as a contemplative water feature. Pulling alongside the home, you exit at the main entry to the house, midway down the driveway. Beyond is the motor court with access to the three car garage and exterior surface parking for up to 6 guests.

  • Walking through the 6’ wide main entry door, the scale of this home reveals itself beyond the foyer. The Great Room of the home includes a showcase chef’s kitchen outfitted in custom stainless steel cabinetry. The sculptural island hugs the main dining area which sits below a James Turrell-esque skylight, framing the blue sky above.

  • Stepping down from the dining area you enter the living room which opens seamlessly to the covered loggia beyond. The meditation pavilion sits within the pool which can be accessed from the dining terrace beyond. A spa sits just beyond the meditation pavilion, a great place to watch sunset in the evenings.

  • Back inside the house, the private bedroom suites sit organized around an internal meditation courtyard. The primary suite is located to one side with a shared primary bath and separate walk in closets. There are three secondary bedroom suites lined up on the opposite side of the courtyard, each with their own ensuite bathroom and closets.

  • Passing through the courtyard, one can access the guest suite which feels like a private destination. This suite is the perfect location for a home office space; a private oasis near to the primary suite.

  • The basement of this home is outfitted with fantastic entertainment and wellness amenity spaces. Descending from the great room, one enters the recreation room with game tables and bar. Beyond the bar is the in-home theater, the perfect place to curl up and watch a movie.

  • For those looking to improve their mind and body the basement includes a gym and spa, with steam shower, sauna, hot plunge and cold plunge pools.

  • Outside of the home are four acres of cultivated gardens and walking paths for one to relax the mind and connect with nature. The Knoll is a distinctive, well-appointed coastal estate near the heart of downtown Malibu, which sets a new standard for California coastal living.
