The kitchen is appointed with Miele appliances and Cristallo Vitrium quartzite, carried across the countertops, backsplash, island, and fireplace for a cohesive architectural statement. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private retreat with a separate lounge, balcony, and spa-inspired bath wrapped in Roman Silver Crystal travertine. Additional bedrooms and beautifully appointed baths provide generous accommodations, while the home's open living spaces create an effortless environment for both everyday life and entertaining. The detached ADU introduces an exceptional degree of flexibility, providing dedicated space for guests, extended family, a private office, or creative pursuits. Outside, the dining deck extends from the interiors to a private backyard, creating an inviting backdrop for open-air dining and relaxed gatherings. With a level of craftsmanship and reinvention rarely found at this scale, this newly reimagined home presents a sophisticated interpretation of midcentury-modern living in one of Santa Monica's most coveted neighborhoods.
