It’s tough to go wrong in Malibu. Whether you cram closer to the beach or sprawl out among the canyons above, the coastal city offers a scenic escape from L.A. with Southern California’s natural beauty as the backdrop.

Beach access is everything, and being on the water can add tens of millions of dollars to the price of a property.

Here’s a look at the highest and lowest-priced homes in Malibu, plus a sample of what you can get for the city’s median price, the point at which half the homes cost more and half cost less.

The main house boasts designer interiors and a recording studio, while the three-story guesthouse tacks on a patio with an aquarium wall. Out back, a funicular descends to a cabana with a chic bar and 256 feet of beach.
