Serra Retreat Real Estate
When you come through the gates to Serra Retreat you enter another world. The climate seems to change, the smell of eucalyptus and the flowers in the surrounding gardens overtake your senses . This is one of the most secluded areas in Malibu, yet so conveniently close to town, restaurants, beach, hikes and other amenities.
As Malibu’s historic ranch center, the rural character of Serra Retreat is unique and treasured. Serra Retreat is a wooded canyon area adjacent to Malibu Creek in Lower Malibu Canyon. Sweetwater Mesa is the only street in this area that has commanding views of the ocean.
The approximately 100 property owners in this small, secluded area belong to the Serra Canyon Property Owners Association, which was formed to maintain and protect the privately-owned, country road of the canyon community. Residents can walk or bike ride to Malibu’s Cross Creek shopping area.
Serra Canyon consists of approximately 100 lots ranging from under 1/2 acre to 4 acres, with a few in excess of 4 acres. All but a few are developed into single-family residences at this time. The homes range from small to large, reflecting the diverse economic and architectural make-up of this special Malibu locale.
