For decades, Malibu has been the ultimate weekend escape sun-drenched, secluded, and synonymous with luxury. But a quiet shift has been happening. What was once a second-home destination is now the primary address for many of Los Angeles’ most discerning buyers. More and more, city dwellers are trading in the traffic and density of urban life for the tranquility, privacy, and lifestyle that only Malibu can offer. So what’s driving this migration from city to coast? The answer is layered: it’s about wellness, design, privacy, and most of all, a better way of life.
A Lifestyle Rooted in Nature & Balance
Malibu isn’t just a weekend escape it’s become a full-time haven for those seeking serenity without sacrificing sophistication. Picture mornings with ocean air, beach walks with your dog, and sunsets over the Pacific every evening. Life here naturally slows down but in all the right ways.
You’ll still find world-class amenities like Nobu, Soho House, and Trancas Country Market, but instead of being surrounded by chaos, you’re immersed in nature: surfable waves, scenic hiking trails, and panoramic views that make you feel like you’re on vacation year-round.
A Strong Sense of Community
In a city where space is scarce and privacy is fleeting, Malibu’s open landscapes and sprawling estates offer a rare contrast. Properties here are often gated, surrounded by mature landscaping, and designed to harmonize with the natural environment. Architectural homes feature expansive layouts, walls of glass, ocean views, and amenities designed for both comfort and performance think cold plunges, infrared saunas, smart home technology, and chef grade kitchens. At Trancas Malibu, this ethos is elevated. Each home is a modern sanctuary with unobstructed views, private grounds, and timeless architecture. This is not just new construction it’s a private enclave of design-forward estates built for today’s luxury buyer.
Privacy, Space & Wellness-Focused Living
For LA buyers seeking more space and privacy, Malibu checks every box. Gated properties, expansive lots, and architectural estates offer room to breathe both physically and mentally. Many homes are designed with wellness in mind, incorporating cold plunges, home gyms, infrared saunas, and lush gardens. At Trancas Malibu, this ethos is elevated even further every detail is intentionally crafted to nourish a luxurious, grounded lifestyle.
A New Era of Full-Time Malibu Living
The shift to remote work has removed geography from the equation for many high-net-worth buyers. Suddenly, there’s no reason to suffer through city congestion when you can take Zoom calls with ocean views, enjoy a midday surf break, and be back in LA in 40 minutes if needed. Malibu allows professionals to maintain connectivity without compromising on lifestyle and that’s a powerful shift.

Nestled in West Malibu and surrounded by untouched coastline, this private, gated enclave features eight architecturally significant estates each one offering the very best of Malibu living.
