In Malibu, a refreshed modernist gem for $14.8 million
Defined by its simple forms and organic materials, the Sea Ranch planned community in Sonoma County is still attracting new converts decades after it began construction in the 1960s. In the ’70s and ’80s, architect Ron Goldman crafted a few Sea Ranch–style homes in Malibu, offering a taste of the lifestyle for those who weren’t willing to leave the warmth of SoCal. AD PRO Directory firm Alexander Design has recently reimagined one of these homes, located in the Point Dume neighborhood. It’s now on the market for $14.8 million.
The five-bedroom, four-bathroom home is flooded with natural light from a bay of skylights above the open living space and floor-to-ceiling windows in most rooms. While the Sea Ranch approach is quite in line with contemporary Californian design’s taste for earth tones, Alexander Design’s fresh take is thoroughly 21st century. Stone countertops in the bathroom and kitchen, new appliances, custom lighting, and an integrated Sonos sound system disappear the notion that you’ve visited a different period. The revamped backyard has a new stone patio with a built-in fire pit and pizza oven station. Just around the corner, a new saltwater pool takes advantage of the ample backyard space.
The listing is held by Branden and Rayni Williams of the Beverly Hills Estates.
