About this property
The Butterfly House- Malibu Hillside Retreat Under the Stars
Take a scenic drive up the Malibu hills to a secluded modern home, nestled in lush Southern California wilderness. Only an 8 minute drive to the Malibu Coast. Close to Zuma Beach. This newly remodeled, bright, airy, relaxing mountain retreat is the perfect get away from the bustling city. Lie down in the master bedroom and see the stars out of our gorgeous lofted windows. Listen to the crickets sing at night and the birds chirp in the morning. Enjoy our board games and books, relax in the huge tub with a bath bomb, lay out on one of our day beds, or have a nice meal outside. This house is the zen getaway of your dreams!
