Villa by the Sea
From the spectacular courtyard to the wrought iron entryway and antique beams, you don't have to go all the way to Italy to find a true Tuscan villa by the sea. This old-world craftsman style mansion sits high on a bluff in the exclusive beachfront community of Malibu California, and it's for sale. You could have neighbors like Cher, Steven Spielberg, and Robert Redford.
With this Italian style house, almost every room opens up to the center courtyard. Coldwell Banker's Carol Bird says the flagstone courtyard is the centerpiece. It's decadent design along with the interior's antique fixtures, beams, and cracked wood floors just add to the European charm.
Even this state-of-the-art kitchen has an old-world feel with its Italian limestone counters, recessed sinks, and yet very modern appliances.
This villa has 7,500-square feet of luxurious living, including five bedroom suites, each with a private bathroom. The master bedroom has 18-foot ceilings and an incredible walk-in closet that's bigger than most people’s bedroom. Bird says, "The master suite has fabulous ocean views. It's very relaxing, soothing with a fireplace."
The price tag for this villa by the sea is $7.5 million. "It's a lot of house for the money in the best location. It's close to town, it has killer views and prestigious neighbors. It's everything someone could want," Bird says.
