The Malibu estate prominently featured in the 2013 film The Canyons, starring Lindsay Lohan, is now valued at $7.3 million.
This unique property is not just a home but a significant piece of cinematic history.
Luxurious Amenities
This architectural gem spans over 12 acres on an exclusive promontory with breathtaking views of Carbon Mesa, the Pacific Ocean, Catalina, the Channel Islands, and surrounding canyons.
Designed by renowned local architect Vitus Matare, the estate reflects minimalist styles inspired by Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe, merging contemporary living with serene mountain surroundings.
This compound includes four structures: the main house, a pool house, a detached carport, and a versatile studio workspace. The primary residence offers four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 4,975 sq. ft. of space, featuring vaulted wooden ceilings and minimalist interiors.
An open layout connects a spacious living area, formal dining room, and gourmet kitchen to a large covered patio with panoramic views.
Rated as the Number One Airbnb in Malibu by L.A. Times Timeout Travel Section, the pool house boasts a full kitchen, laundry, and a separate entrance.
The detached studio adjacent to the main house is ideal for a gym, music studio, or private workspace.
Organic fruit trees enhance the estate, while a 2-car garage with a workshop, a carport for three cars, a long landscaped driveway, and a motor court with space for seven additional vehicles add convenience.
An open-level pad provides the potential for the addition of a second pool or pickleball court.
Featured in Vogue and Paul Schrader’s The Canyons, this property offers an unparalleled Malibu retreat.
The property also includes a neighboring lot, enhancing its appeal for potential buyers seeking privacy and space.
Production Challenges and Crowdfunding Success
Lohan portrayed Tara, while actor James Deen played her boyfriend, Christian.
Despite its ambitious intentions, the film was critically panned, earning only a 21% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The production faced budget constraints, leading to a reliance on existing locations, including the iconic Chateau Marmont and Palihotel Melrose.
Notably, a crowdfunding campaign helped finance the use of this stunning Malibu property, with one donor contributing $10,000 specifically for its filming.
