About 45 minutes from Los Angeles via the scenic Pacific Coast Highway is Malibu – playground of the rich and famous and their fabulous beach homes. There, on one of Malibu’s best beaches, hockey-legend Chris Chelios is asking $75 million for his Paradise Cove beach house.
Chris’s Mediterranean-style mansion is located on a spacious 1.7-acre lot, offering one of California’s best ocean views. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be greeted with an impressive entryway that leads to a grand living room, featuring breathtaking views of the coastline through its large windows.
The chef’s kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, ample counter space, and a cozy breakfast nook. The primary suite includes a spa-like bathroom, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private balcony that overlooks the ocean. With four additional bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, and a separate guest house, the property has plenty of space for hosting visitors. A private stairway leads to a one-bedroom, detached guest house on the sand with a living room, full kitchen, three big decks, and a rooftop for entertaining. The backyard features a large pool and spa, a built-in BBQ and bar area, and multiple seating areas to relax and take in the stunning California sunsets. Or practice your putting skills on the property’s own putting green.
Located a short distance from Billionaire’s Beach, Paradise Cove with its white sand, turquoise water, and views of the Santa Monica Mountains is a popular spot for sunning, surfing, fishing, and boating. It is the #1 television and movie star of all of the California beaches – the filming location for Beach Blanket Bingo, Rockford Files, Gidget, Baywatch and many more. The beach is seen in music videos for Madonna, Fergie and Coldplay and was an early backdrop for a Marilyn Monroe pinup photo.
Chris is tied with Gordie Howe for the most seasons played in the NHL, a star both on the offense and, especially, a defensive specialist. He is an NHL career leader in penalty minutes, holds the league record for career playoff games, and was a two-time US Olympian. His 26-year career included the Montreal Canadians, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings and Atlanta Thrashers. Chris retired in 2010 as a three-time Stanley Cup champion and was named to the NHL All-Star team 11 times. He’s been involved in several business ventures, including restaurants and bars, He’s also dabbled in acting, appearing in several films and TV shows. He is now working as an ESPN hockey analyst.
