Cindy Crawford Sells Oceanfront Malibu Mansion for $45 Million

The 5,254-square-foot, four-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home overlooks the Pacific Ocean and has a number of amazing features, but one of the finest is the privacy it offers – essential for any celeb trying to keep out of the paparazzi’s eye. Situated on a hill, the mansion is set within three acres of natural and manicured grounds and we just can’t say enough about that beach view.

The 3.18-acre beachside estate is located in Malibu’s fashionable, sought-after Encinal Bluffs area and offers stunning, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. It looks like the celeb couple wanted to take full advantage of relaxing and enjoying the scenery by ensuring there was a wraparound deck, featuring glass railings and comfy lounge seating.

Crawford and Gerber bought the house back in February 2015 and did some serious renovating, and the asking price includes all the furnishings in the home – pretty inviting when it comes to the living room, with hardwood floors and wooden tables contrasted with white walls and California chic furnishings.

White contrasts with wood in this bright kitchen illuminated by a bank of windows. The galley-style cooking area is functional and chic, with a.massive exhaust fan in place to suck up the heat from the oversized six-burner gas range, keeping the room cool on those scorching Malibu days.

The home’s open concept allows the expansive kitchen to flow directly to the family room, with sliding glass doors opening to the wrap-around patio.

According to reports, the home sold for $45 million after being on the market for more than a year, with the original asking price of $60 million eventually whittled down to $50 million. If the sale price is accurate, the couple took a $5 million loss, having reportedly purchased the place in 2015 for $50.5 million.

The massive 5,254-square-foot home features numerous living spaces dedicated to relaxation, with the mid-century modern furnishings adding serious sophistication.

With blonde hardwood flooring and white beamed ceilings, the home evokes the classic look of a Cape Cod beach house, albeit on a far grander scale.

This outdoor deck is outfitted with inviting furniture to capitalize on the stunning view. A massive wall of large glass windows and sliding doors ensure you have access to the waterfront lookout.

Built in 1944, the updated home now has beautiful spa-like bathrooms featuring soaking tubs, vanity tables and large shower stalls to wash off all that beach sand.

Enjoy the view below while you walk up the circular staircase that spirals to the two bedroom suites on the upper level, each with its own private entrance.

The home boasts 5 bedrooms, including a master suite with an ocean view, fireplace, sitting area and two separate bathrooms.

This dining room/family room area opens to the outdoors, displaying the 360-degree views the floor-to-ceiling windows offer around the home. A relaxing place to read as the ocean breeze blows in to keep the room cool or do a little seaside spying with a pair of binoculars.

Another look at the home’s view of the ocean. The couple sure do love their tropical waterfront properties, having recently sold their vacation home in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico for a reported $100 million.

A winding path down the gentle cliff leads directly to the beach.

In addition to access to the beach, the backyard area also offers an in-ground pool, fire pit, shaded eating area (to keep that supermodel skin looking young) and lots of loungers for anyone who wants to soak up the sun.

This backyard entrance accesses a courtyard that leads to the house and exits to the beach, surrounded by lush foliage.

Fitness and fun in the California sun comes easy when you’ve got your own private tennis court.

The large sliding glass doors allow for a seamless flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces, a must for Southern California beachfront living.

This rock-lined pond is part of the meticulously landscaped grounds.

The home’s new owners will enjoy the benefits of beachfront living in one of Malibu’s most desired locations.
