Nestled in the hills of Topanga Canyon, this magical, historic, very loved and well-maintained family compound is on the market for the first time in 26 years and provides the ultimate in privacy, beauty and peace. Consisting of two separate APNs (4438-018-024 and 4438-018-025), both properties are ...being sold together to total five main structures, 43 acres of oak-studded woodland with ocean views (and breezes!), a network of hiking trails, a huge pool, a suspension bridge, and more. Upon arrival, the first parcel, at 7.2 acres, holds the contemporary two-story caretaker's house. Built in 2005 and designed by noted architectural designer Charles Ward, it's a fully functioning one bedroom, two bath house and totally self-contained with its own well, utilities and address (1047 Greenleaf Canyon Rd.). There are no photographs as it is currently occupied by the caretaker but can be shown upon a second or third showing. Continue up the long driveway to the main property (1043 Greenleaf Canyon Rd.) on a 36.3 acre parcel. With one main house, two guest houses and a weaving room/art studio, the property is studded with oak trees with views down the canyon to the ocean and a sprawling hiking trail system built by trail master extraordinaire Thad Geer. The main house is an original 1934 adobe built from the land it sits on with one-bedroom plus office, one-bathroom and plenty of outdoor spaces to relax or entertain. Open the windows and feel the ocean breeze blow in. There's a covered patio/entertaining area at the front of the house with a fountain, and on the back side is a veranda that runs the length of the house with sweeping southerly views, looking down the canyon to the ocean. It has central A/C and heat. Below the main adobe is "The Cadillac House", named for the Cadillac grille above the submarine entry door. With an efficiency kitchen, a 3/4 bathroom, a deck overlooking the hills and beyond to the ocean, it's currently used as a guest house for the occasional overnight guest. Cooled and heated by a split. On a level above the main adobe is a spacious Cliff May/mid-century vibe guest house that looks down the canyon to the ocean on one side and overlooks the pool on the other side. The sexy, back-to-nature glass-walled shower is everyone's favorite. Cooled and heated by a split. Above the "mid-century" guest house is a structure that was built as the owner's weaving room with a separate, stand-alone bathroom, including a shower that can serve not only the weaving room, but act as a pool bathroom and also the bathroom most convenient to the amphitheater, where many family friend jazz musicians have performed over the years at birthday parties and weddings. Cooled and heated by a split. There is more to discover on this well-preserved, lightly-treaded, one-of-a-kind property, than can be written here. Who else can say they have a house on 43 acres of their own personal, private hiking trails with an ocean view so close to Los Angeles and in the middle of nowhere at the same time? It needs to be seen in person to fully understand how truly special this property is.
