Property Description

Introducing Villa di Vita Bella, an architectural triumph of timeless design by esteemed architect Douglas W. Burdge, AIA, set within Malibu's most secluded enclave, the 24-hour security-bound Serra Retreat. Beyond its own gates, this peninsula estate commands extraordinary privacy and one of the rarest vantage points in Southern California: the ability to watch the sun rise over the ocean from the front of the home and set into the sea from the back. Resting on more than an acre of terraced Italianate gardens, the residence unfolds as a sprawling private resort, with an infinity pool and spa, championship tennis court, Kalamazoo outdoor kitchen, and fitness pavilion. Every element has been crafted with uncompromising artistry and imported European materials, blending old-world sophistication with California's coastal ease. Inside, soaring interiors showcase Venetian plaster walls, a grand double-height foyer with a sweeping marble staircase, and curated spaces designed for both intimate living and lavish entertaining. The La Cornue chef's kitchen is complemented by a bespoke butler's pantry, while the primary retreat offers a sanctuary with a couture closet, wraparound terrace, and a spa-inspired bath featuring silver-plated sink basins, a sculptural marble tub, and a coastline-view steam shower. Entertainment abounds on the lower level with a theater, 800-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar, and recreation lounge that flows seamlessly outdoors to a patio adorned with a hand-painted mural by artist James Goldcrown. A detached guest house mirrors the estate's refined aesthetic, complete with its own La Cornue kitchen, living room, fireplace, and terraces with awe-inspiring sunset vistas--ideal for hosting extended stays with comfort and style. Marrying its European pedigree with modern innovation, Villa di Vita Bella is equipped with advanced home tech, including Crestron home automation, radiant heated floors, central vacuum, water purification, and a state-of-the-art Generac generator. Its coveted location ensures not only tranquility but also proximity to Malibu's world-class beaches, Nobu, Soho House, and the Malibu Country Mart. A rare fusion of privacy, prestige, and permanence, Villa di Vita Bella stands as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Malibu's most breathtaking ocean view estates.
