The cavernous one bedroom, two bath home sits on a 23 acres lot with unparalleled 360 degree breathtaking ocean, mountain and city views influenced by changing light.

The property is currently offered at $3.5 million.

LOL....You took the words right out of my mouth....

[Nervous Tick]

Wow! It IS flintstonian!

Don’t break a window... I don’t think they *carry* that shape at Home Depot...

[dfwgator]

Where are the elephants they use for tap water?

[Doogle]

built for same...

[Lazlo in PA]

Flintstones is right.

[tflabo]

Way cool— I like it—sits high up. Looks like fairly low maintenance too.
How often does one have to mow the cactus?

[geege]

And the portrait of Uncle Giggles....

“...let’s hang the picture over there...????..wait...maybe over there...nope...???..over there?”

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Stunning house! He deserved it!

[Netizen]

Looked at all the images. Unique is right. Could be a hard sell, but then again, it is very nice.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

It’s really cool but really, really weird.

It’d be nice for a week’s vacation but long-term you’d probably get weary of its weirdness.

[Jewbacca]

I was curious how a one-bedroom house could be “cavernous” and I guess this is how.

[smokingfrog]

One bedroom is not big enough for me. Besides, it doesn’t appear to be up to code.

[dfwgator]

Bet it has a heck of a “Man Cave”.

[freedumb2003]

>>Stunning house! He deserved it!<<

The late Mr. Clark clearly had one heck of a sense of humor.

I can almost see him chortling every time he went into the kitchen (and yes, I am sure he thought about a mechanical elephant hose).

He was a national treasure — Jan 1 will never be the same.

Could be a hard sell, but then again, it is very nice.

With 23 acres and the view I suspect it will sell easily especially if the property isn’t restricted against building another home on it.

[TheConservativeParty]

Cool pictures with the original article.
Looks like a fun place to stay.
Too weird to live in full time though.

I thought the same thing. For the price, even of you bull doze the home, it’s an awfully nice area. Or use the house a guest house and build something similar to complement it, without being so Flintsonian.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

I’ve occasionally thought about building a home kind of like that. Now I know I shouldn’t bother. I don’t find it attractive, nor very homey. I think it would get old. LOL.

[Doogle]

I could see where a second level could be hazardous...

[momtothree]

The views are stunning but check out the master bedroom. I would feel like the walls were closing in on me and I’m not really claustrophobic. I guess it is “to each his own” type of style.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

I’m just not fond of the overwhelming beigeness of it. I don’t especially like beige as a dominant color. Plus, I just removed a crapload of termite-infested wood on a remodel I am doing and frankly, it looks like a huge termite-eaten piece of wood, with the people living in the tunnels.

[patriot08]

Hideous.

[Chode]

wonderful place!!! and for all the megamillion dollar crap there is out there, 3.5 isn't that bad at all for a view like that and 23 acres

[Doogle]

it’ll be beach front soon

[sauropod]

LOL!

[presently no screen name]

Yaba daba do! Dick Clark says ‘rate the record’ - I say it’s easy to see and easy to clean - I give it a 10!

[Delta 21]

Gotta luv the TV antenna.

[Jonty30]

That would be the value of this home. Somebody who can afford 23 acres in Malibu would be able to afford the lawyers to quickly get permission to tear this down and build something else.

I’ve seen this home in some home magazines. I don’t recall it ever being owned by Dick Clark.

[Sirius Lee]

It doesn't get more American than this. A self made millionaire and a true individual.

I'm a big fan of Frank Lloyd Wright and "Car Hendge" and this sort of marries the two, along with a big heaping bowl of Cocoa Pebbles on the kitchen table.

[Chode]

then the price will really go up...

[al baby]

Barney Rubble was one hell of an actor

[Fresh Wind]

How would you hang a picture on the wall?

[Irish Eyes]

I absolutely LOVE that house, and it is just the right size. Would make a marvelous turn-key home.

I would need someone to take care of the "low maintenance" landscape.

;)

[Doogle]

see my post #12

[leapfrog0202]

Thanks for posting this! Very cool!

[dragnet2]

Great pic...I love it....And with views of the ocean?

Lemme find my check book.

[presently no screen name]

The ‘pictures’ are seen through the windows and change according to the sun. Unique just like Dick Clark!

[presently no screen name]

Lemme find my check book.

Don't bother, I already bought it with cash. :)

[dragnet2]

What a great style...Up on a hill+views to the ocean...

Close to perfect in my eyes.

[presently no screen name]

To me, also!

[Kirkwood]

Was he mentally ill?

[Doogle]

far from it...he had enough money to be whimsical and take the top off a mountain (estimated worth when he passed 200 million)

[hinckley buzzard]

I'd buy it tomorrow if I had the money.

[carriage_hill]

No; just very rich. And a wee-tad-bit eccentric.
