Property Description

Saddle Peak Modern | Situated on a picturesque five-acre retreat, this stunning '89 Modern was designed by the widely recognized and published LA architect, Cory Buckner, well-known for her modern home design and mid-century restoration/renovation projects. She is the author of several notable architectural books including the much loved A. Quincy Jones. This home is conveniently located near the top of Saddle Peak Ridge - adjacent to the exclusive 1600-acre Cold Creek Canyon Preserve and in-between the Saddle Peak and Topanga Lookout trailheads. Extensive hiking and riding trails abound in the area and the property was once a part of the historic Murphy Ranch, adding to its rich heritage. Buckner's vision for this modern home was carefully considered. It was sited and designed to take full take advantage the breathtaking 180 views of the surrounding wild landscape, the Santa Monica Mountains to the north and the flickering city lights in the valley below at night. Expansive windows frame the mesmerizing vistas and the oversized glass doors and clerestory windows blend the in-and-outdoor spaces, inviting the natural beauty and warm light inside. The large decks provide even better opportunities to get lost in the views, tranquil surroundings and for entertaining guests as well. The timeless efficient design features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across 2,500 square feet and has the flexibility to be converted into separate upstairs and downstairs units. The downstairs includes the added bonus of an earth-sheltered soundproof studio. The rich and warm hardwood floors are complimented by the consistent use of maple casework, built-ins and doors throughout the home. Designed with eco-friendliness and safety in mind, the home incorporates green features that not only enhance its sustainability but also minimize the utility bills. The innovative floorplan incorporates a clever airflow system that significantly reduces the reliance on air conditioning and heating while promoting natural cross-through ventilation throughout the home. On the outside a stucco exterior, a roof of fire rated class A built up composition with gravel topping, and dual glazed windows were used to create a protective envelope around the home. Additional flat buildable areas around the grounds offer ample opportunities to create a family compound by adding an ADU, studio, shop or horse stables to the property. A 30-acre conservation easement permanently safeguards the property - ensuring peace, privacy, and wildlife for years to come. The surrounding landscape is home to a rare red shank grove, an oak woodland and an abundance of native wildflowers creating a truly enchanting environment. Conveniently located just 10 minutes from the beaches of Malibu and the Calabasas Commons, the home offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. The award winning public schools in the Las Virgenes Shool District and the prestigious private Viewpoint School are only minutes away. The natural surroundings, inspiring architecture and endless views from Saddle Peak Modern are all you need to charge your spirit, brighten your day and let your cares float away.
