Malibu’s Point Dume oasis estate with coveted private access to the surfers’ paradise of Little Dume Beach has been listed for $7,995,000 by Susan Monus, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialist affiliated with the Malibu office of Coldwell Banker Realty. For almost 30 years, this property served as the creative sanctuary for the multi-Emmy-winning producing and directing married couple, Paul Taublieb and Susan Cooper. Among their notable productions is the feature film “The Vow,” starring Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum, which grossed over $200 million at the box office. Located at 6649 Zumirez Dr. in Malibu, Calif., the approximately 2,752-square-foot residence has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and one half bath on a sprawling acre, surrounded by lush lawns and mature landscaping.
“Set behind double gates on one of the most desirable streets in Malibu, this light-filled residence effortlessly marries architectural charm with the relaxed feel of resort living in Malibu,” said Monus. “With resort-style amenities and coveted access to Little Dume beach, this home embodies the quintessential Malibu Point Dume lifestyle while just moments from Point Dume village.”
Large clerestory and canyon-facing picture windows bathe the interiors in abundant natural light, creating a warm, blissful atmosphere throughout. An inviting formal dining area overlooks a sunken living room anchored by a distinctive fireplace. The adjacent den features soaring ceilings and expansive windows. Adorned with handcrafted tilework, the kitchen seamlessly transitions into a cozy breakfast nook and charming bistro room with a banquette. Two main-level bedrooms share a bathroom, with one currently serving as a peaceful home office. Completing this level are a stylish powder room and a thoughtfully designed laundry room boasting patterned tile floors, plentiful cabinetry and a second dedicated refrigerator. Up the skylit stairwell, a versatile bonus room, which was originally a loft, is now enclosed with glass block for privacy, making it an inspiring artist studio or creative retreat.
Occupying its own private wing, the primary suite boasts a fireplace, enclosed patio overlooking the sparkling pool and manicured gardens, as well as an ensuite bathroom with dual sinks, a shower and soaking tub framed by treetop views. With the feel of a private resort, the landscaped grounds offer a pool, spa, multiple lounging terraces, cedar sauna and lush mature trees, including palms, magnolias, pines, melaleucas, sycamores and an over 100-foot redwood. The spacious front yard provides a barbecue area and flat lawn, while the back and side yards frame sweeping canyon views. Adding to the property’s versatility is a converted garage with a flexible living space and private, outdoor lounging area.
