Situated on 180 sprawling acres with stunning views of the surrounding vineyards and mountains, the massive estate of entrepreneur George Rosenthal has hit the market for $38 million in Malibu, California. The Rosenthal Estate features extraordinary space and privacy, extensive vineyards, approximately 600 avocado trees, a private residential compound, two pools, 12,000 square feet of living space, and spectacular hacienda-style architecture by architect Louis Angelikis. With the amenities of resort-style living in an enchanting setting, residents will experience a world all their own, where the possibilities are endless. Guests enter the majestic property through hand-carved gates and follow a long, winding private road along a rippling winter creek through one of the largest stands of mature oaks in Southern California, vineyards, and curated art installations which line the path to the main residential compound. 

A converted stable of 2,545 square feet along the road serves as both a tasting room and banquet space, evoking memories of old California. Arriving at the main residence, drive through the porte-cochere to a cobblestone courtyard that features a center landscaped cascading fountain and a six-car garage. Every feature of the exquisite eight-bedroom, nine-bathroom compound reveals the spectacular attention to detail. The authentic hacienda architecture, the trumpet vine-covered porticos, and lush landscaping surround the impressive entrance to the main residence.

Tall, artisan wood sculpted double doors with hand-wrought hardware, provide entry to the primary residence, which features gorgeous open wood-beamed ceilings, wide stone surround doorways, intricate wood columns, and custom-designed one of a kind skylights. Arched windows and beveled glass doors open to the surrounding natural beauty. In addition to the main residence, the compound includes a separate gym, convertible to a bedroom and sitting room with an ensuite bath, a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, and powder room secondary building containing a living room/ screening room, enclosed patio, sunroom for dining and relaxation, a full-service kitchen with a butler’s pantry and an indoor pizza oven. In addition, there is a separate one-bedroom and living room guest quarters, all of which surround the pool and patio area.

There is also another two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest house with a full kitchen, living room, and with its own swimming pool. This perfect retreat within a retreat is found nestled in the center of the estate with breathtaking views of the hills, and canopies of mature trees. Within the main residence, the kitchen is spacious and open, featuring a custom tiled backsplash, curved fireplace, and granite center and wood island with seating, and a skylight overhead. Wood cabinetry, stainless steel Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and a three-basin sink add ideal functionality. French doors open to a covered dining patio with an outdoor kitchen. Immediately adjacent to the kitchen is the formal dining room, which includes a two-story coved ceiling, a Taxo Mexico hand-wrought silver chandelier, fireplace, skylight, and two sets of French doors, leading to a patio and exterior grounds.

 The primary bedroom offers a stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, and doors opening to the terrace and the stunning vineyard and mountain views. Two luxurious stone bathrooms each include custom vanities, silver sinks, faucets, and glass-enclosed showers and bidets. Walk-in closets round out each of the bathroom suites. Each of the main residence’s two unique bedrooms feature fireplaces. The outdoor space is a wonderland. The main pool cascades into the adjacent lap pool in the main residential compound, surrounded by an outdoor fireplace and dining area and a massive terraced hardscape for poolside lounging that accommodates large events. The spectacular Rosenthal Estate is on the market for $38 million with Sandro Dazzan of The Agency. Photos and information from the agent’s listing.
