Karlie Kloss and Josh Kushner snapped up an iconic Malibu, Calif., mansion for a cool $29.5 million.
The model, 32, and the venture capitalist, 39, purchased the pricey property, dubbed the “Wave House,” for a discount as the home was originally listed for an asking price of $49.5 million in June 2023, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The mid-century modern West Coast home was previously owned by Rod Stewart and was designed by the late great architect Harry Gesner in the 1950s.
The couple reportedly purchased the estate at a massive discount. MEGA The home was designed by acclaimed architect Harry Gesner. MEGA
The structure resembles waves breaking along the shore thanks to its unique curved roof with hand-cut, scale-like copper shingles.
Gesner famously sketched out the plans for the abode while sitting on a surfboard on the water outside of where the home now stands.
The abode is designed to look like a crashing wave. MEGA The structure is also said to resemble the Sydney Opera House. MEGA The home sits on an acre of beachfront land. MEGA The house features three wrap-around terraces overlooking the ocean. MEGA
Situated atop stilts on an acre of beachfront land, the compound spans 6,200 square feet and boasts six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling windows and three wrap-around terraces perfect for taking in the waterfront views.
The home features a luxurious beach-facing primary suite with a sauna, three vaulted “public rooms,” a 60s-style conversation pit, a central fireplace and a hot tub.
“With its unique design and captivating atmosphere, the Wave House stands as a testament to the artistic vision of architect Harry Gesner and its enduring appeal in the real estate market,” Dena Luciano, one of the listing reps, previously told The Post.

“It is awe-inspiring, while simultaneously evoking a sense of relaxation,” Luciano added.
The estate has a separate building that is currently being utilized as a garage and a guest house.
Gesner originally designed the architectural gem – which was famously featured in the 2019 film “Yesterday” – for a local couple in the area who owned a lumberyard.
The grounds have stunning gardens as well as a private beachfront. MEGA The estate has eight bathrooms. MEGA “I wanted the house to have the look of a giant wave at the peak of its strength,” Gesner had said. MEGA

The “Project Runway” star and her husband already have an impressive real estate portfolio.
Page Six reported in 2020 that the pair purchased a $23.5 million eight-bedroom Miami home located around the corner from Josh’s brother, Jared Kushner, and his wife, Ivanka Trump.
