Offered for sale for the first time is Harry Gesner's "Sandcastle", his personal abode located in Malibu. The 1974 circular post and beam mid-century modern home on the beach is now listed for $22,500,000.
With a total of 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, the compound accommodates multiple retreats. Early pioneer in salvaged materials, Gesner brought telephone poles. reclaimed bricks, wall panels made from aqueduct pipes, birdseye maple from a high school gym, old-growth redwood harvested in the 1800s, and windows and doors revived from a Hollywood silent theater.
The sound and rhythm of the waves breaking on the shore in front of the house brings a calmness to the home on the beach.
Included in this modernist compound are additional structures including an ocean-view "tree house" apartment with a kitchenette, living room/dining area, bedroom, bath, and wraparound deck; a "boat house" with a full kitchen, ocean-view living/dining room with a built-in table and porthole windows, a full bath, and a bedroom; and another one-bedroom apartment "nest" with ocean view and stained glass above an indoor/outdoor cabana.
Located next to Gesner's famous "Wave House", this personal residence of Gesner's should not be missed.
