1934 Stone Lake House with Large Dock

About the Space

Property Overview A rare private lakefront compound. One of Southern California’s most storied filming destinations, located within the 30-mile studio zone. Think of this property as a sleeping film star: it carries decades of cinematic DNA in its bones while remaining genuinely undiscovered as an individual listing. The Residence Historic stone construction dating to 1934, built in the Arts & Crafts vernacular that defines the club’s early character. The stone masonry gives the property a weight and permanence that reads as European alpine, New England lakeside, or rustic Pacific Northwest depending on lens choice and dressing. The same chameleonic quality that has made the lake itself double for Switzerland, Bavaria, the Canadian Rockies, and the Mississippi River across 100+ productions. Upstairs and downstairs living rooms contain real woodturning fireplaces lined with local Malibu stone. The Dock A large private dock with direct lake access — a genuine rarity among the approximately 100 homes on the lake. Photographically, as seen in the attached sunset image, the dock frames the lake and the Santa Monica Mountains beyond with extraordinary natural composition. The water surface at golden hour becomes a mirror, effectively giving you two skies for the price of one — ideal for romantic scenes, thrillers, or any visual storytelling that benefits from reflection and stillness. The Setting Surrounded by mature live oaks, sycamore trees and a variety of California native plants along the mountain ridge lines on all sides. Zero visible modernity from water-facing angles. The property sits within a community that has hosted productions including Frankenstein (1931), Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Ring, Twin Peaks, Modern Family, Sons of Anarchy, and The Office, among over 100 films and television series. Ideal for a period drama (1920s–1970s), psychological thriller, romance, indie feature, high-end commercial, music video, luxury lifestyle editorial. The stone-and-dock combination is particularly strong for scenes requiring isolation, dread, nostalgia, or quiet intimacy — moods that are hard to manufacture and expensive to build on a stage. Logistics Within the SAG-AFTRA 30-mile studio zone (approx. 35 miles from Hollywood). Gated private community — minimal foot traffic, low ambient noise, controlled access. Year-round lake.
