Avril Lavigne Buys Ocean-View Malibu Contemporary
By James McClain
Location: Malibu, Calif. Price: $7.8 million Size: 3,455 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms
Although she famously crooned “No, no, no” in her globally successful debut single — 2002’s anthem “Complicated” — Canadian pop/rocker Avril Lavigne is saying “yes, yes, yes,” to a seriously snazzy house in the celebrity-beloved seaside city of Malibu, Calif. Records reveal the 36-year-old has paid $7.8 million for a very private estate that’s essentially just around the corner from Lady Gaga’s $23 million compound.
Set on the bluffs high above one of Malibu’s sandiest beaches, with unobstructed whitewater views, the .63-acre property lies on a so-called flag lot — the house is invisible from the street, tucked securely behind a long, gated driveway. Constructed in the 1960s, the place was totally rebuilt some years ago by Scott Gillen, a prolific Malibu developer/designer who specializes in a clean-lined, contemporary aesthetic.
While the refreshingly uncomplicated house isn’t especially big — the listing notes it spans just under 3,500 square feet — the single-story structure is blessed with a host of desirable amenities, including a completely open floorplan and a wow-inducing exposed beam ceiling married to a host of mini spotlights. There’s a great room with custom woodwork and a fireplace, honey-hued hardwood floors, plus banks of glass doors that open to the backyard and those unstoppable views.
Isolated in its own wing via a giant barn-style door, the master suite has more ocean vistas, a vaulted ceiling with unvarnished ceiling beams, spa-style bath, and a walk-in closet with custom backlighting and space for an small army’s worth of clothing.
Other amenities include an outdoor dry sauna, a temperature-controlled wine closet, a chic kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, and two guest bedrooms — one of which is currently staged as a home gym. There’s also a detached two car garage with an additional bedroom suite, likely best-suited for a staff member or cranky mother-in-law.
For privacy, the entire property is surrounded by towering hedges, and the grassy front yard is shaded by mature trees. Out back, a spacious concrete patio includes a firepit and BBQ, while terraced planters lead down to a lower wooden deck beside a simple rectangular pool, complete with an inset spa and Baja sunbathing shelf. Below that, more grassy lawn meanders gently down the hillside, toward the sandy beach far below the house.
Lavigne is far from new to the L.A. real estate rodeo; way back in 2007, she paid Blink 182’s Travis Barker $9.5 million for a Bel Air mansion that was subsequently sold to NBA star Chris Paul and is today owned by Michael and Fariba Rad, the parents of Tinder founder Sean Rad. The previous last stop on her real estate train was in Sherman Oaks, where she and ex-husband Chad Kroeger owned a faux French-style marital house that was sold off this May for exactly $5 million.
Chris Cortazzo and Ron de Salvo of Compass held the listing; Jade Mills of Coldwell Banker repped Lavigne.

Avril Lavigne Buys Ocean-View Malibu Home for $7.8 Million
The singer sold off a French-style house in Sherman Oaks this past May By Joyce Chen December 1, 2020
In May, Avril Lavigne sold off the French-style mansion she had previously shared with ex-husband Chad Kroeger for $5 million.Photo: Steve Jennings/WireImageAvril Lavigne is feeling drawn to the sea: The singer recently paid $7.8 million for a stunning home in Malibu perched on bluffs overlooking the beach. Set on a 0.63-acre lot, the contemporary-style residence spans a modest 3,455 square feet, but what it lacks in square footage, it more than makes up in attention-grabbing aesthetics and amenities. Though it was originally built in 1968, the house was completely redone by Malibu developer and designer Scott Gillen in recent years to reflect a more modern, clean-lined feel. The single-story property features a large open floor plan with an impressive, grid-like exposed wood beam ceiling hovering over the living space, formal dining area, and galley-style kitchen. An entire wall of built-in shelves flank a wood-burning fireplace at one end of the great room, while the dining area features large glass doors that open out onto an expansive back patio overlooking the ocean. A cozy office space is situated unobtrusively in a far corner of the room, with built-in bookshelves and a desk. There are a total of four bedrooms and three full and one partial bathroom on the premises, though one of the guest bedrooms is currently being used as a generously proportioned home gym. The main suite has its own wing and is accessible via a giant barn-style sliding door; the en suite bathroom is a revelation of white tile, with an oversize steam shower and claw-foot tub. Out back, a fire pit and built-in grill are perfect for entertaining; a few steps down past a terraced garden, there’s a large rectangular pool with inset spa and a wooden deck for sunbathing. An outdoor dry sauna provides a luxurious refuge during colder weather, and a detached two-car garage has its own bedroom suite, which could be easily used for staff housing.
