- Hi, my name is Chris Cortazzo,
welcome to Malibu, California.
I'm about to show you one of my favorite beach homes
in all of Malibu and perhaps the world.
This Thai-inspired oasis is owned by legendary actor
Pierce Brosnan and his filmmaker wife, Keely Brosnan.
It's on 117 feet of Malibu beach frontage.
It's approximately 12,500 square feet,
four bedrooms in the main house,
plus an outdoor guest house, three kitchens,
saltwater pool, the most incredible screening room.
There's a spa that's indoor and outdoor access
so you're really enjoying this incredible weather
that Malibu has to offer.
All of this is on the market for $100 million.
You're in for a major treat.
The house is called The Orchid House.
As you can see, it's filled with orchids,
gardenias, plumerias, these doors are all hand-carved
from an inspiration from Thailand
and you'll see the details and the bespokeness
throughout the house.
[gentle music]
This epitomizes the Malibu lifestyle.
We have one big open floor plan.
We have double living room here,
dining room over here,
we have Brazilian teak floors.
As you can see this is a French Chinois vibe
which ties in the classiness of France
with the casualness of Asia.
Why don't we go outside and I can show you what's out there.
[energetic music]
This is such a luxury to have this much space
before you hit the Pacific Ocean.
As you can see here, we have two covered seating areas.
We have a gas fire pit right here
and this area is unique because it's all enclosed
with glass, so if you have prevailing winds
from the afternoon, it's ideal.
Also, Keely came up with heating underneath the limestone
so if you're out here in the evening,
you can stay warm.
And out here, we get A for quality of water,
so if you're an oceangoer like myself,
you're really going to enjoy the ocean.
And if you like to surf, there's a great surf break
up there as well.
Here looking back at the house from the beach,
you really get a feeling of the Thai architecture
that was done by Ross and Ralph Anderson.
Keely takes a lot of pride in the roof.
It took her three years to get these tiles
the correct green, it's absolutely beautiful
and very, very well done.
[calm music]
When Pierce told Keely, "Build your dream home,"
she definitely did, and the most important aspect
of any home as far as I'm concerned is the kitchen.
We have crystal quartz countertops,
incredible teak cabinetry, double range ovens,
so when you're cooking, the whole flow
kind of goes through like this,
and over here in this corner,
you can see that you have a breakfast nook,
fireplace, and everything opens up
to the shimmering ocean.
It's truly spectacular.
Brace yourself, this is like no other.
[calm music]
Welcome to the most romantic bedroom in all of Malibu.
An outstanding feature of this primary bedroom
is the scissor truss ceilings.
Adds to the romance and the luxuriousness
of this incredible space.
When Keely was designing this primary bedroom,
she wanted two fireplaces, and then there's also
another one on the other side of the room.
This is a great spot for Pierce to read his scripts.
Let me take you to the balcony which perfectly frames
the shimmering Pacific.
This deck expansiveness is incredible.
You could look at the dolphins,
pretty soon the whales are gonna migrate as well,
and they come literally right within the surf line.
If you are a surfer, you have Victoria Point
right up the road where Keely and Pierce's son
goes every morning, there's no rocks in front
so it's perfect for boogie boarding and swimming.
[calm music]
Welcome to Keely's bathroom,
truly one of the most luxurious bathrooms I've ever seen.
Look at this indoor-outdoor flow,
oversized claw bathtub, onyx inlaid
in the teak floors, you have it on the sinks,
and also in the shower as well.
This has to be truly the best view
from any bathtub in the world.
[calm music]
Keely's closet is so luxurious.
You have all this natural light
from all the skylights, you have around six
different compartments for your gowns, teak floors.
It's the size of some beach homes.
[laughs]
[calm music]
This was originally designed for Keely's office.
The light is so beautiful in this space
'cause it's north facing,
that has now become Pierce's artist studio.
This one is in production,
it's called "Fishhook," you can see the fishhook right here.
His inspiration is Picasso,
so as you can see, we have Picasso here,
you have an image of his stepson and stepdaughter,
and this is Pierce's work of himself.
It's called "Selfish," it's really spectacular.
[calm music]
This whole wing of the house is Pierce's side.
We're in the production office.
Great natural light, you have the scissor
truss ceilings here with skylights.
It's almost like you're floating in a tree house,
it's absolutely spectacular.
This is where a lot of their work is decided,
what movies they're gonna be doing.
As you can see here, a crystal fireplace.
Most people get small little crystals
to get the great energy.
This if you lean against it, you're revived
and pure again.
[calm music]
In Pierce's closet, we have Afromosia cabinetry
and radiant heat floors which keeps everything
a really comfortable temperature.
Let me show you Pierce's bathroom.
[calm music]
Pierce's bathroom is spectacular.
You have green onyx on the countertops,
also in the steam shower as well,
you have the teak floors and Afromosia cabinetry.
[calm music]
Here's a secondary guest bedroom,
as you can see consistency is throughout the house.
We have the teak floors, built in cabinetry,
and you can see some of Pierce's incredible artwork.
The nice thing is for the children,
they don't have to go through the living space
to get to each other's rooms,
they can run across the courtyard.
Notice how large this closet is.
This would be someone's primary closet in a regular house
but this is just in the guest room.
Keely's youngest son is a surfer,
so the whole theme here was she found this crystal quartz
that looks like a wave breaking.
It's a steam shower so after a long day of surfing,
you can warm up very quickly.
[calm music]
So we're leaving this secondary bedroom
and as you can see, we have a floating staircase
which is so nice 'cause it adds
all this extra light in.
At the top of this staircase,
you can see incredible natural light.
[calm music]
So we're on the lowest level.
The theater bar which is also considered
the wine bar is beautiful.
All the onyx is butterflied,
so it's all opened and outlaid,
and around the corner here,
we have a wine room, holds around 200 bottles of wine.
I've been here before for screenings
and it is a blast.
[calm music] When you go to the movies,
you want to be transported into a different realm.
Here you definitely are.
Look at the size of this theater.
What a surprise for a beach house, I have to say.
The walls are all Ralph Lauren silk material.
Martyn Lawrence Bullard who is an amazing designer
helped Keely pick that out.
The theater seats 20 people.
This is the place to be in Malibu on a Saturday night.
Keely and all our friends come over,
we have dinner, a movie night,
and it's the greatest experience in the world.
[calm music]
How lucky is Pierce to have a world-class gym?
All the best equipment, all mirrored,
it's the ultimate place to work out.
Lucky Pierce.
[calm music]
This is the jam room, also known as the music room.
It's all soundproof.
One of their sons has a band called Raspberry Blonde,
so they practice down here,
create all this incredible music.
This is one of Pierce's paintings from "Golden Eye"
and it's called "Earplugs," he painted it on the set
'cause he was being shot at all the time,
but this is a great space if you want to be
as loud as you want and have as much fun,
and it's also great if people have
too much fun at a party, they can come
and sleep over here as well.
[calm music]
Now we have this spa, which is such an unexpected surprise.
All this natural light, staircase coming down
from the beach, so when you're all sandy and tired,
you can come right in here and be purified.
You have a dual sauna so you can have infrared and dry.
You have a huge steam room, hot and cold plunge pools
that can be filled within three minutes.
So from here, we're gonna go up the stairs
to the saltwater pool and to the beautiful guest house.
[calm music]
Look at the saltwater pool with the waterfall
and it almost looks like a mermaid's tail sparkling.
Off the pool, this is the pool house,
and what a pool house it is.
You have a full kitchen, oversized fireplace,
bar area over there, and above us,
we have the guest house.
So we're just about to go up to the guest house,
but I just wanna point out Keely's passion
for landscaping really comes through.
Look at these plumerias, look how happy they are.
This is an extraordinary guest house.
It reminds me of the production office
because it feels like you're in this amazing tree house,
but you have a lot of romance, again,
you have another fireplace.
You have the views of the Pacific Ocean
and the pool and two private balconies, pretty impressive.
[calm music]
Thank you for joining me on this tour
of the Brosnan estate.
It's one of a kind.
It's only been on the market twice in its lifetime
and it took the Brosnans 10 years to accomplish
this incredible Thai estate.
This home is like a resort on a domestic scale.
It's on one acre, 117 feet of frontage,
12,500 square feet, four bedrooms,
plus a guest house, three kitchens,
saltwater pool, theater, spa, gym,
and it could be yours for $100 million.
