Inside A Modern Malibu Estate Within the Exclusive Serra Retreat

Michele Vidarte • August 22, 2025

Tucked within Malibu’s exclusive, guard-gated Serra Retreat, 3511 Cross Creek Lane blends refined style with relaxed coastal living on 1.24 private acres. Situated along serene Malibu Creek, this 4-bedroom, 6-bathroom home spans approximately 5,500 square feet, characterized by subdued splendor, neutral color palettes, and organic materials, blending nature with contemporary design.

Move through wispy olive trees, spiky agave, and native plants landscaped to modern perfection to reach the estate’s entrance. Doors open to reveal custom beamed ceilings and wide plank oak floors that carry throughout the first floor living spaces, which lead directly to the organic grounds beyond. A neutral palette characterizes the interior, with white, black, and oak creating a throughline accented by wood, metal, and glass in both natural and contemporary usage.

The expansive chef’s kitchen features Gaggenau appliances, quartz countertops, a 4-seat island, and custom walnut cabinetry. Simplistic design sets the stage for an uncluttered atmosphere, which opens to a spacious dining area with room for ten, lit with a glowing, sculptural LED chandelier.

Four bedrooms throughout the home are poised for modern comfort, accented with natural light from large windows and bright color schemes. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and spa-style bath with soaking tub and dual vanities. An upstairs patio allows for tranquil views of the property and pool area.

To access the retreat-like grounds, disappearing glass doors create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, opening to a backyard oasis with an infinity-edge saltwater pool and Baja shelf, al fresco dining area, built-in BBQ, and multiple lounge spaces, all set against a lush lawn with peaceful creek views.

Tucked into the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, this home provides natural privacy amidst the untamed, organic nature of the area. Ideal for the refined buyer seeking a coastal retreat, 3511 Cross Creek Lane is represented by The Agency’s Eytan Levin. To learn more or to schedule a showing, visit the listing here.
