Hidden just off the coast of Malibu, this ranch-style retreat at 30604 Sicomoro Drive offers the perfect balance of coastal charm and quiet seclusion. Set in the desirable Malibu West community, the home features vaulted wood ceilings, brick walkways, and lush gardens that create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Just minutes from the shoreline, it feels like a true hideaway while still being close to everything that makes Malibu so iconic.

This property was vacant at the time of the shoot, which made it the perfect backdrop for virtual staging. We chose to virtually stage the primary bedroom, dining room, and den area with some modern furniture to help potential buyers imagine how the spaces could be lived in. With its open layout and abundant natural light, the home provided a flawless canvas for showcasing just how transformative virtual staging can be in real estate marketing.

One of my favorite parts of the shoot was the backyard — so green, lush, and private that it naturally created perfectly framed photo opportunities. The landscape design, paired with mature trees and vibrant plant life, gave every angle a sense of serenity and depth. From detailed interior shots to wide drone photos, the property’s indoor and outdoor spaces came together beautifully.

Capturing this home was an absolute pleasure, blending professional real estate photography, immersive drone aerials, and strategic virtual staging. At Pacific Frame Media, we love combining these tools to tell the full story of a property. This Malibu hideaway is a reminder that some of California’s most stunning treasures are just beyond the coast — and presenting them with care ensures they shine in the competitive Ventura and Los Angeles County real estate market.
