AWE-INSPIRING VIEWS OF THE QUEEN’S NECKLACE!!! Come enjoy the sweeping scene from Malibu to downtown LA and even to the snow-capped San Gabriel Mountains. It’s mesmerizing to watch the waves break along RAT Beach or see the planes line up for a landing at LAX — all from the large deck and floor-to-ceiling windows that span the entire back of the single-story, Spanish-style house. These opportunities don’t come along too often. It’s the first time this family home has been on the market in almost 60 years. This abode exudes Old World charm from the moment you walk through the aqua blue rustic gate and step down into a front courtyard. Brightly colored custom-designed tiles dot the exterior. Once immediately inside the house, the view becomes the main focal point from the living room, informal dining area, and kitchen. A large formal dining room, which could be used as a family living area, opens to the courtyard from its slider doors. The seven-decade-old hardwood floors are nearly pristine in the bedrooms, which are all a good size with large closets and lots of natural light. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The home is nearly in original condition, needs updating. This property in the center of Malaga Cove is close to the library, Malaga Cove Plaza, PV Beach and Athletic Club, and the Hollywood Riviera. The Upper La Costa Fire Station Trail also borders the nearly 12,000-square-foot lot.
