249 Paradise Cove Road, Malibu, California 90265

Living in Paradise Cove feels like a never-ending summer camp from the 70s. Everyone waves as you drive by in your golf cart, neighbors stop and chat, and kids run from house to house untethered. When you pass through the gates, nobody cares who you are or what you do…you’re just one of us. This fully-renovated beach house is perched on the Cove’s bluff section, where the whitewater views and west-facing sunsets are simply…yours. The glass-rail porch, the soaring wood-paneled ceilings, the blue eco-lino floors, the retro freestanding fireplace, the ocean-tile bath: It’s all done right, with real coastal authenticity and zero fuss. But the beach is truly what makes this community special: One of the best and most iconic stretches of sand in the world, and the people who live here know it, because when they go on vacation they find themselves missing it. The surf is legit. The paddleboarding is phenomenal. The tidepools are a constant little discovery of nature. And out front, dolphins and whales pass by like it’s their own migratory highway, because it is. This is the house. This is the life.
