Malibu Glass Marvel: 2315 Live Oak Meadows Road

Lucía Torres · 2026-05-06

Light, steel, and glass come together in an architectural masterpiece perched among the oaks of eastern Malibu. Designed by Finn Kappe, son of celebrated modernist Ray Kappe, 2315 Live Oak Meadows Road is a striking expression of Southern California modernism. Represented by The Agency's Jill Spencer Brokaw, Eric Haskell, and Blake Varga, this home sits on a fully fenced acre. The residence unfolds as a series of glass-wrapped volumes, where canyon views and shifting light become part of the interior experience. ### A Grand Entrance and Open Floor Plan An oversized pivot entry door sets the tone on arrival. Inside, the 2,002-square-foot floor plan encompasses two bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The main living area centers around a sculptural Arclinea kitchen, where bespoke Gaggenau appliances and a monolithic marble island anchor the space. Concrete floors are made cozy with radiant heat. Integrated lighting, immersive audio-visual systems and dual-zone HVAC add ease. A comprehensive down-to-the-studs renovation was completed in 2018, and carefully preserved the architectural intent. ### Renovation That Respects the Past Commercial-grade glazing, a new roof, updated electrical and plumbing systems, and reimagined bathrooms with custom slab work were among the improvements. The renovation didn't just update the home—it honored the original design while making it work for modern living. - New roof and commercial-grade windows for durability - Updated electrical and plumbing systems for efficiency - Reimagined bathrooms with custom marble slab work - Dual-zone HVAC for year-round comfort ### Outdoor Living and Future Potential Beyond the walls of glass, the property continues to unfold. Landscaped grounds, mature plantings, and the natural canyon terrain create a setting that feels immersive and private. There is room here to evolve—potential for a future pool, or the transformation of the existing carport into a garage or guest house—offering the next owner an opportunity to further shape the estate. ### Location and Lifestyle Just six minutes down Las Flores Canyon to the coast, the home offers easy access to Pacific Coast Highway, Malibu's beaches, and nearby destinations like Nobu Malibu and Soho House Malibu. It's a rare blend of seclusion and convenience. To learn more, reach out to the listing agents—Jill Spencer Brokaw, Eric Haskell, and Blake Varga of The Agency.
