A sprawling seaside compound owned by former longtime NHL defenseman Chris Chelios has popped up for sale again in Malibu. Nestled on a picturesque blufftop parcel directly overlooking Paradise Cove beach, and offering around 90 feet of ocean frontage, the almost half-acre spread is asking a speck under $60 million, after first hitting the market for $75 million in early 2023. Carl Gambino and John Bercsi of the Gambino Group at Compass share the listing.
Records show the three-time Stanley Cup champ and his wife Tracee paid $6 million back in summer 2003 for the vacation getaway, which comprises a nearly 3,800-square-foot main house boasting four bedrooms and five baths, plus a beachside guesthouse—all providing sweeping coastline and ocean views via walls of glass and expansive decks.
The fireside living room has collapsible glass doors flowing out to an ocean-view deck.

Built in the early 1980s and since updated, the property is hidden away at the end of a secluded cul-de-sac and a lengthy gated driveway. An entry foyer flows into the three-story primary dwelling, which is highlighted by a fireside living room that opens to an alfresco lounging and entertaining deck, plus a kitchen sporting an eat-in island and a breakfast nook.
A loft-style bedroom can be found upstairs, while three additional bedrooms include a primary suite equipped with a fireplace, a sitting area, a private balcony, and a walk-in closet, as well as a bath outfitted with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a glassy shower. There’s also a media/game room.
The primary bedroom has its own balcony.

Stairs descend to the aforementioned guesthouse, which comes with a bedroom, a living area, and a kitchen. A couple of decks include one on the roof and another hosting a hot tub and a barrel sauna.
After a 27-year career spent playing for the Chicago Blackhawks, Montreal Canadiens, Detroit Red Wings, and Atlanta Thrashers, Chelios retired in 2010 and was subsequently inducted into the NHL Hall of Fame. The Chicago native, who currently serves as a TV hockey analyst, has said he and his wife are selling because they are now grandparents and want a vacation spot that is closer to their children.
