‘The Cactus House’ is for sale in California. See how elegant home got odd name
A stylish seaside home with a creative name has landed on the real estate market in Malibu, California, for an eye-popping $19.995 million.
The reason for the high price is not only because the house is an epitome of sophistication, but because of its location — it sits on a part of Southern California that’s considered an “exclusive row” along the Malibu coastline, the listing says.
“Originally designed by Charles Kanner, the home was meticulously reimagined in 2021, seamlessly blending classic mid-century design with the warmth and tactility of the Mediterranean,” the listing on Sotheby’s International Realty says. “Natural cactus front and center, the home’s minimalistic design connects perfectly to nature, allowing the beauty of the surroundings to take center stage.”
The home is referred to as “The Cactus House” thanks to its cactus around the residence.
Features of the four-bedroom, four-bathroom home, per a news release, include:
Rare 58 feet of beachfront
Indoor/outdoor living spaces
Terrace
Dramatic views
Chef’s kitchen
Deck
Fireplace
Primary balcony
Lounge
Gym
“Escondido Beach and the stunning Pacific Ocean are your personal backyard at this extraordinary home, perfect for entertaining and serene oceanfront indoor/outdoor living,” the listing says.
“Residents will enjoy being a few yards away from the private beach staircase to one of the area’s renowned dining establishments Geoffrey’s, and close proximity to hike Escondido Falls or shop at Cross Creek.”
According to the release, the house is currently owned by producer, director and writer Matthew Cooper.
The listing is held by Sandeep Dhariwal of Sotheby’s International Realty – Beverly Hills Brokerage.
