Description

One of the last preserved estate properties sited directly on the sand of the Southern California coastline. Nearly 1.3 acres of elevated land, protected from main streets and bordered by two private, gated roads – this sprawling respite, surrounded by walled gardens and a mature arboreal curtain is a true haven unfolding only to a 226-foot panorama of wide sandy beaches along with sparkling ocean, evening-lights, and sunset views. The spectacular residence, one of the largest and most refined in this famed enclave’s collection of architecturally significant homes, is a sight to behold. Built originally in 1926, the grounds and blueprint encapsulate idyllic seaside living with the scale and accommodations of a bygone era. Completely renovated in 2022, the home was redesigned to incorporate the requisite elements for elegant, modern living – while maintaining the level of architectural detail rarely executed today. Encompassing over 7,600 square feet of living space, the interior presents a symphony of visually captivating experiences. Every consideration was made in creating exceptionally stylish – yet livable formal and informal areas finished with complementary appointments. Precision craftsmanship; an incomparable assemblage of imported stones and hardwoods; uncommonly sourced materials; bespoke furnishings and textiles; designer lighting, fixtures, hardware, and wall coverings; artisan-crafted millwork, finish carpentry, and ceiling details; the finest culinary and bath amenities; advanced technological conveniences; along with a curated selection of antiquities and commissioned murals tastefully grace every turn. Ensconced by mature trees and specimen plantings, the expansive outdoor surround affords myriad environments for splendid experiences in the natural setting. A glittering, swimming pool, spa, with an adjacent dedicated bath and pool deck; two interior courtyards; a reflecting pool with over 50 artisanal Koi fish; multiple oceanfront terraces; a vast, verdant sea-front lawn; and a secured gate and stair with exclusive access to the sand directly from the property crowns the incomparable parcel. Further distinctions – a fully-permitted space to build an additional structure/ADU; two over-sized garages; and a motorized, gated circular drive with capacity for at least ten vehicles. With unmatched intrinsic value and lifestyle opportunities – this is the most extraordinary offering in this region in decades.
