## Description

### Agent Description
A bold architectural statement overlooking the Pacific, this approximately 1.79-acre lot is offered with plans for a sculptural contemporary estate unlike anything else in Malibu. Defined by sweeping curved forms, expansive walls of glass, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, the design frames panoramic ocean, mountain, and sunset views from nearly every room. The approximately 9,354-square-foot proposed residence by GO:architecture is centered around open-concept living spaces that extend naturally to an infinity-edge pool, spa, and expansive terraces, thoughtfully oriented to maximize privacy, natural light, and the surrounding landscape. The six-bedroom design also includes a lower-level wellness retreat with spa amenities, a theater, wine cellar, gym, and elevator. The architectural plans are accompanied by geology and soils reports, approved fuel modification plans, health department approval, and public works approvals, providing a substantial head start toward development. Just moments from Pacific Coast Highway, Point Dume, Zuma Beach, Trancas Country Market, and scenic hiking trails, the property offers the opportunity to realize a truly distinctive architectural landmark in one of Malibu's most desirable settings.
