WELCOME TO MALIBU OCEAN VIEW SITE
Malibu, CA
Perched atop a private, elevated knoll in highly coveted Malibu Park, 30601 Morning View Drive commands a sweeping 5.35 acre (approx.) vantage point where panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, white-water surf at Zuma and Broad Beaches, Catalina Island, and the Santa Monica Mountains merge into a single, breathtaking horizon. This is not merely a parcel of land-it is a generational opportunity offering the rare legal freedom to construct an estate of unmatched scale in one of Southern California's most strictly regulated coastal enclaves.
The true power of this property lies in its rare Woolsey Fire rebuild exception. Under Malibu's current restrictive municipal codes, achieving maximum allowable living area requires a minimum 5-acre lot. Meeting this strict threshold with approximately 5.35 acres while carrying grandfathered rebuild protections permits an extraordinary total build of up to ~14,500 square feet (~12,200 sq. ft. living area plus garaging and covered loggias)-a volume virtually impossible to replicate under modern city limits. Positioned behind private gates, the property includes fully drawn and approved architectural plans by famed architect Clive Dawson for a grand 7-bedroom, 10-bathroom classical home complete with a resort-style pool, spa, and tennis court. Whether you choose to break ground on these nearly shovel-ready and approved plans or customize your own vision, the site provides a rare, turn-key foundation.
Perhaps most compelling is the balance of scale and location. Large parcels offering this degree of privacy are typically found far up in the canyons, while properties this close to the beach offer considerably less land. Here, the two converge-offering expansive acreage just seconds from the water via a private neighborhood pedestrian tunnel. Imagine a private Malibu compound where mornings begin with an ocean-view walk, afternoons move between the beach and your private grounds, and evenings unfold against the colors of the coastline. For a buyer with vision, this is an opportunity to create something distinctly their own in a setting that is virtually impossible to replicate.
