Nestled within a canopy of old-growth oaks in Monte Nido, this sunlit compound channels the quiet magnetism of Malibu Canyon with the style and sophistication of California's architectural lineage. Set across an acre of gated, verdant grounds, the home and its two curated outbuildings offer a rare canvas for both creative flow and laid-back retreat. A compelling blend of scale, natural light, and organic textures, the main residence spans 3,122-square-feet, comes fully furnished, and showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, wide-plank wood flooring, and expansive picture windows that infuse the interiors with a distinctive airiness. The spacious living room is crowned by rustic beams and anchored by a stone-clad fireplace, with warm textures and sculptural lighting that nod to a modern ranch vernacular. The adjacent chef's kitchen is flanked by a wall of windows overlooking the deck and outfitted with stone countertops, premium appliances including a double-oven range and wine fridge, and a seated center island for convenient entertaining. Upstairs, the tranquil primary bedroom offers a true sense of retreat, with lush treetop views from a balcony and a generous walk-in closet, as well as hallway access to a luxurious bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower and soaking tub positioned to catch the light. A laundry room with storage and two secondary bedrooms and bathrooms complete the layout. Sliding glass doors throughout open the home to its multiple outdoor living areas where every path invites pause: the gravel lounge nook shaded by twin oaks, a sun-washed entertaining deck, and saltwater pool and spa. Citrus trees, lavender, and a seasonal creek form a living backdrop -- lush, unforced, and ever-changing with the seasons. Off the pool deck is a fully detached studio, serving versatile space for work, artistic pursuits, or entertaining. Just beyond is a private infrared sauna, an outdoor shower, putting green, and sport court. Whether soaking beneath the stars or simply lounging on the sun deck enveloped in birdsong and breeze, this is a setting that invites a slower tempo. Supremely positioned in the Monte Nido enclave just minutes from Malibu and Calabasas proper, surrounded by trailheads and wildlife, 959 Crater Oak is a place to live, work, and create among an enchanting natural setting.
