Aquaterra by Stay Awhile Villas | House in Malibu

Summary:
Aquaterra captures a chapter of Malibu that is becoming increasingly rare. Positioned on 50 feet of sandy beachfront along the private Escondido Beach enclave, the home pairs timeless mid-century architecture with a heated pool at the water's edge, expansive decks above the sand, and uninterrupted Pacific views that define every moment of your stay.
The Space:
From the moment you step inside, the Pacific horizon becomes the backdrop to every moment. Designed to embrace its extraordinary setting, the home's principal living spaces flow effortlessly toward expansive beachfront decks, where the distinction between indoors and the coastline seems to disappear.
Inside, the home's architectural character is complemented by a refined contemporary aesthetic that feels both timeless and understated. Warm natural materials, clean lines, and a restrained palette create a sense of calm, allowing the ever-changing beauty of the ocean to remain the focal point throughout.
Whether gathering for breakfast as the waves roll in, preparing meals in the beautifully appointed kitchen, or lingering over dinner as the sun sinks into the horizon, every space is designed to celebrate its surroundings. As daylight fades, the fireplace offers a welcoming place to unwind, while expansive sliding doors keep the sights and sounds of the shoreline just beyond.
Outside, multiple seating and dining areas invite everything from quiet morning coffee to long afternoons overlooking the water. Just steps away, the heated pool occupies a remarkable position at the water's edge, offering a setting rarely found along Malibu's coastline. Beyond the deck, the beach stretches in both directions for peaceful walks, days spent by the ocean, and unforgettable sunsets.
Tucked along a quiet dead-end beach road, the home offers a rare sense of privacy while remaining moments from Geoffrey's Malibu and a scenic stroll along the shoreline to Paradise Cove. Here, the rhythm of the tide replaces the pace of everyday life, creating an experience that is as effortless as it is unforgettable.
