About this home
Howard Backen understood that a home should feel inseparable from its surroundings. Set across approximately 4.45 acres with an extraordinary 543 feet of frontage along Malibu Road, overlooking the Malibu coast and Pacific Ocean, 24157 Malibu Road provides a future setting of remarkable scale for that philosophy. The design was conceived specifically for this property, bringing the legendary architect's unmistakable warmth and restraint to one of Malibu's most extraordinary settings. One of the most influential California architects of his generation, Backen was inducted into Architectural Digest's AD100 Hall of Fame. His celebrated work spanning extraordinary private residences, wineries and hospitality projects helped define a distinctly Californian architecture rooted in natural materials and a profound connection to the land. The approximately 11,759-square-foot residence unfolds as a collection of interconnected structures rather than a single imposing form. Wood, stone and expansive walls of glass establish a natural material palette, while courtyards, gardens and terraces are woven throughout the architecture. Rooms open generously to the outdoors, drawing in ocean views, sunlight and the landscape and creating the relaxed intimacy that defines Backen's best work. A gated approach leads through the property to separate motor courts, allowing the house to reveal itself gradually. At its center, a dramatic great room with soaring wood-beamed ceilings opens in two directions: toward the Pacific Ocean and to a sheltered courtyard with fireplace. The kitchen, family and dining spaces are similarly connected to the outdoors, designed for a way of living that can move easily from quiet, everyday moments to large-scale entertaining. Across three levels connected by elevator, the plan includes private guest accommodations, staff quarters and a secluded primary suite, along with a gym, media room and wine room. Outside, the architecture continues through a series of terraces and landscaped spaces with a swimming pool, spa and outdoor kitchen. Every element has been considered as part of the whole, from the siting of the structures and progression between rooms to the relationship between architecture, landscape and ocean. The result is a home of significant scale that still feels intimate, informal and distinctly Californian. 24157 Malibu Road presents an extraordinary opportunity to bring a fully realized Howard Backen residence to life in Malibu.
