Welcome to Mintcello - a private Malibu Masterpiece by Apel Design Studio. Perched above the Pacific on 4.5 secluded acres, Mintcello is a breathtaking coastal estate where Italian romance meets Malibu serenity. Designed and crafted by Apel Design Studio, this residence is more than a home — it’s a livable work of art, offering an unparalleled connection between architecture, nature, and light. From the moment you arrive along the 650-foot private driveway, illuminated by solar lights and framed by mature pepper trees, Mintcello unfolds like a private sanctuary. A custom-built steel gate opens to reveal panoramic views of the Pacific and rolling coastal hills — a setting that feels discovered, not constructed. Perfectly positioned, the estate offers a rare balance of privacy and accessibility — just 15 minutes to Point Dume’s beaches and 15 minutes to the 101 Freeway, providing effortless access to the best of Malibu and beyond. Every inch of Mintcello has been meticulously handcrafted by artisans — mosaic inlays, carved fountains, sculptural lighting, and custom copper shelving highlight the devotion to detail and design. Natural materials and hand-finished surfaces reflect the timeless beauty of the countryside while embracing the stillness of the California coast. Spanning 4,013 sq ft of interior living space and an additional 460 sq ft two-car garage, the home’s thoughtful floor plan frames every moment of the day — from sunrise over the hills to glowing coastal sunsets. A wraparound patio and garden terraces invite connection and contemplation: read beneath the pepper trees, share long meals with friends, or simply watch the ocean’s rhythm unfold. For those seeking versatility and vision, Mintcello offers multiple ready-to-build areas including a 2,500 sq ft pool-ready pad behind the main residence, a 1,500 sq ft rear pad ideal for a guest house, yoga or art studio, or private retreat, and an expansive 18,600 sq ft lower pad, perfect for vineyards, orchards, or unforgettable outdoor events. With vineyards, orchards, and open space that encourage a self-sustaining lifestyle, Mintcello is both a creative haven and a natural refuge — a place to live slowly, beautifully, and artfully. Apel Design Studio’s philosophy — “Connect to the Art of Living” — is embodied here in every texture, curve, and view. Quiet yet inspiring, private yet connected, Mintcello invites you to live as artfully as it was designed.
