Tucked in the Malibu Hills, the 180-acre Rosenthal Ranch is a luxurious paradise that’s a world apart. Located just five minutes from the famous Malibu beaches, this estate is a spectacular, secure, and private oasis of tranquility surrounded by vineyards and the Santa Monica Mountains.

On the market for $38 million, the 180-acre estate surrounds a residential compound comprising 12,000 square feet of living space spread over the main hacienda, three guest homes, and staff quarters. For decades the home of renowned real estate developer George Rosenthal, the property reflects his love of Mexican architecture and wine country. The estate has more than 10,000 vines supporting Rosenthal’s eponymous wine label. There’s room for an additional 10,000 vines or more orchards as well.

Sitting at the terminus of a 1,000-foot-long oak-lined private lane, the main hacienda and guest houses embrace a fabulous courtyard. Inside the hacienda, the exquisite details of the home unfold underneath high wood-beamed ceilings, wonderful columns, fireplaces, and other unique features. Stunning pink walls are accentuated by hand-carved wooden doors, ornate tiles, and fine carpets. The compound overall sports eight lavish bedrooms spread out over distinctive areas. The main hacienda has living rooms, a professional kitchen, a butler’s pantry, a gym, and a sunroom, many with French doors opening onto fabulous patios. There are two guest cottages facing the inner courtyard, one with its own swimming pool.

Outside, manicured gardens and idyllic courtyards blend into vibrant vineyards, a mature oak forest, and a vast avocado orchard of more than 600 trees. Adjacent to the hacienda, a wonderful cascading pool is surrounded by a patio with a fireplace that’s perfect for entertaining. From there, multiple nature paths wind through the estate past woods and a pond, leading to a hiking trail through the mountains. The beautiful stables have been converted into a 2,545-square-foot wine tasting room with a banquet area. This unique property also features a four-car garage and extensive wine storage facilities.
