Description

A Pioneer in Sustainable Living within a Private City... Welcome to a visionary property that redefines sustainable luxury in this one-of-a-kind residence. It was the first home in California to use fire-resistant hempcrete, a breathable, non-toxic, carbon-negative material offering superior insulation, indoor air quality, and durability. Designed for the eco-conscious buyer with an eye for innovation, this home is not just a place to live—it’s a statement of values. Situated on a sun-drenched corner lot in a private, guard-gated city, this architectural gem blends regenerative design with timeless elegance and everyday comfort. Thoughtfully engineered for health and performance, it features passive heat recovery and ventilation to maintain a near-constant interior climate year-round, minimizing energy use. The insulation is primarily crafted from wood by-products sourced from Germany’s Black Forest—a renewable, non-toxic material prized for its thermal performance and eco-friendliness. Inside, you’re welcomed by soaring custom wood cathedral ceilings and an abundance of natural light from skylights and large windows. Venetian plaster & clay walls with mineral pigments for a refined, eco-conscious touch. The home offers plenty of space with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and an enormous family room. Note that 2014 addition plans show 2,656 sf. Outdoors, the Certified Wildlife Habitat garden and property is an organic food lover’s dream, featuring 48+ mature fruit trees—a thriving edible landscape. Imagine mornings spent harvesting your own fruit, and evenings cooking fresh vegetables from the raised garden beds and farming patches. Enjoy your bounty from the wrap-around covered porch or dine al fresco on one of the outdoor patios, designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. This unique property includes two driveways—ideal for corner-lot access and RV parking, an EV car charger, and approved plans for a new 3-car garage. There’s ample space to add a lap pool, horse stall, and/or an ADU, allowing you to customize your vision of luxury country living. Located within the coveted Palos Verdes Unified School District and surrounded by hiking and equestrian trails, this property offers peace, privacy, connection to nature, and access to top-tier education—all just a short drive from coastal beaches and urban amenities. This is more than a residence. It’s a pioneering achievement in sustainable luxury—designed to nurture, inspire, and endure.
