The large flat backyard is ideal for entertaining, whether that's
lounging with friends around the blue-tiled infinity pool in the
afternoon, sitting shoulder to shoulder around the fire pit sharing
the first pressings from your vineyard or digging into the bounty
of vegetables from your raised-bed organic garden and grilled
to perfection on the Viking range in the outdoor kitchen. They
need only a touch of olive oil and a sprinkle of Maldon salt to
make them sing. The crisp Pavlova you're serving for dessert is
lush with the fruit from your own trees. With the children find-
ing them own amusements on the trampoline and on the play
area's swing set, the talk turns to the real focus of the weekend's
gathering: the golf tournament you've organized on your five hole
par-15 course. Lit for day or night play, with a signature hole
designed after Pebble Beach's famous hole number 7 — includ-
ing an identical backdrop of ocean and shape of green —what
started as a casual event has become a hotly contested invita-
tion among your circle. Picnic areas long the course let even the
non-golfers in the group participate, cheering along their favor-
ite players. Others take the opportunity to commandeer the gym
or take advantage of your beach and tennis rights at Malibu's La
Costa Beach Club. "Resort-style recreational amenities, gorgeous
design, and sensational views make this very private remark-
able estate both a perfect getaway and a picturesque setting for
inspired indoor-outdoor entertaining," says real estate agent Chris
Cortazzo. "Located on a gated promontory of more than two mani-
cured acres on two parcels, the home's retractable glass walls
open onto patios, pool, golf course, vineyard, and views that take
in a panorama of ocean, islands, and coastline from Point Dume
and the Malibu Pier to Palos Verdes."
