Striking Malibu Modern That Starred in Lindsay Lohan’s Movie ‘The Canyons’ Lists for $7.25M

Lots of homes in Los Angeles are known to be the residences of several movie stars, but sometimes the homes are the stars themselves. A modernist compound in Malibu fits that category, and is on the market asking $7,250,000. It took center stage in a thriller called ‘The Canyons,’ which starred Lindsay Lohan.

The unique modern serves as the backdrop in many of the scenes, almost seeming like a main character in the movie itself. Since then, the striking residence has also been popular as a getaway for many, recently named the Number One Airbnb in Malibu by the L.A. Times‘ Timeout Travel Section.

Driving up to the property, it’s no surprise that it was chosen as a filming location. Built by Vitus Matare with inspiration from Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe, the home spans nearly 5,000 square feet across the main house, pool house, and detached studio. Each structure captures rugged California views, and blue sights are also in high supply with the pool and ocean. The listing also includes the adjacent lot to bring the total land for sale above 12.43 acres. And, while life in Malibu is all about being outside, the interior of the home is like no other.

Rich wood tones and clean lines pop out against some industrial-feeling spaces, giving the home a rare contemporary meets midcentury feel. The main floor holds all the public entertaining spaces while upstairs, a private primary suite and a funky loft are standout features. There are three more bedrooms for guests to utilize, but they may never want to leave.

With access to Rambla Pacifico, one can leave the house and reach Pacific Coast Highway in just five minutes, all while keeping private in the hills. Interested? Russell Grether and Tony Mark of Compass share the listing.
