About this property
Behind stone gates and framed by Malibu’s rolling hills, Villa Zuma offers an elegant blend of Spanish Revival charm and laid-back coastal rhythm. As you pass through the entry courtyard, the scent of citrus mingles with ocean air, and arched doors beckon you into interiors that are airy, refined and deeply inviting. Whitewashed walls and terracotta tiles meet vintage chandeliers and hand-carved furnishings, creating a space that feels both curated and unpretentious.
The heart of the home is its light-filled kitchen, where hand-painted tiles meet warm wood cabinetry, and every window frames a blue horizon. Whether brewing morning espresso at the Miele station or gathering around the marble island with a glass of wine, it’s a space that adapts to the moment. Each of the four bedrooms is en-suite, with three opening directly onto private patios or balconies that catch the sea breeze. Outside, a slim lap pool glimmers in the sunlight, flanked by a hot tub and a cast-iron dining set made for long, alfresco meals beside a bubbling fountain.
Beyond the hedged lawn, the hills roll quietly into the distance and the sky melts into the sea. At dusk, watch the light shift through French doors, curl up by the fire or slip into the home theatre for a night in. Tucked into peaceful Malibu Park, Villa Zuma feels like a hillside hideaway with all the comforts of a well-loved home. Whether you're entertaining, retreating, or exploring, the rhythm here is unhurried and unforgettable.
Tucked into the tranquil enclave of Malibu Park, Villa Zuma enjoys one of the most serene and sought-after settings along the California coast. Elevated above the shoreline, the home overlooks a stretch of rolling foothills that meet the sea, offering a rare combination of mountain stillness and ocean views. The only sounds are rustling trees and crashing waves.
Despite its calm, the villa is well placed for enjoying the best of Malibu. Zuma Beach, known for its wide golden sands and surf-friendly waves, is just a short drive away. For morning coffee or artisanal snacks, local favourites like Vintage Grocers and Lily’s Café are close by, as are the boutiques and galleries at Trancas Country Market. The surrounding trails of Zuma Canyon and the nearby Backbone Trail invite hikers and horseback riders to explore miles of scenic routes framed by wildflowers and ocean views.
Malibu Park itself is known for its equestrian properties, sense of space and relaxed, residential feel. With its elevated position and strict dark sky ordinance, evenings here are made for stargazing. This is where Malibu sheds its red-carpet sheen and returns to its roots, an unspoiled stretch of coast, steeped in natural beauty and California ease.
