Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For Sale

California's Malibu Beach has been a popular surf & sun site with 32 beaches on 21 miles of ocean since the Pacific Coast Highway came through town in the 1930s. More visitors and surfers hit the Malibu beaches after the 1960’s teen bikini movies were filmed there, followed by a wave of hit television shows including Charlie's Angels, Hannah Montana and Two and a Half Men. Past and current celebrity residents range from Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston to Halle Berry, Ellen DeGeneres and Charlie Sheen. The Hollywood stars can choose from a large inventory of expensive homes to live on the Malibu sand.

Malibu architect Ed Niles, now 77, has long been known for his functional cubist glass and steel homes designed to maximize natural light and landscapes. It’s the type of home he built for his clients and his family high in the hills above Malibu. In addition to the W.T. Chen Malibu Beach home he built in 2010, other notable Niles designs include Johnny Carson’s Malibu home that his widow sold in 2007 for $40 million.

When Wei-Tzuoh Chen, a nephrologist, commissioned Niles to create his dream beach home, the two men and an engineer collaborated for six years through design to completion. Doctor Chen had a series of specifics in mind to fit the family’s lifestyle based on his Chinese heritage, Feng Shui, Asian art, antiques, and his collection of 80,000 classical albums. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Chen also shared two additional Chinese beliefs he had incorporated into the home: that the exterior should be unassuming and the good luck color of red should be in evidence. Even with the striking modern architecture, the house can barely be seen from the Pacific Coast Highway, and almost everything from the open triangular cooking area and dining structure to the museum-quality art incorporates something bright red.

Located on one of Malibu’s best beaches and with the Santa Monica Mountains rising in the background, the 8,989-square-foot residence is designed, as Ed Niles says, like a village of forms. Each form is designed for its particular use. Construction materials include walls of steel beams, concrete, translucent fiberglass and glass walls with 29-foot ceilings that provide for the art collection, while allowing prisms of sunlight and breezes to sweep through the house and expansive ocean views.

Included are four bedroom suites in the main house, one of which is a luxury master with curved window walls. There is an elevator, a soundproof home theatre and music room built into the hill, and an enclosed triangular casual dining area off the gourmet kitchen with BBQ, ocean views and a buffet line. There is a separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest house, eleven unit-zoned air conditioning units and, with the home’s cutting edge technology, a 19-server Internet hosting capability.

The Malibu, California beach house designed as a "village of forms" by renowned architect, Ed Niles, is now for sale. Aitan Segal of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties in Beverly Hills and Ari Afshar of The Agency in Beverly Hills have the listing. Priced at $53 million.
