Designed by Martinko Studios, this striking contemporary, gated, and private residence blends bold architecture with exceptional functionality, offering 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan ideal for modern living. Featuring one bedroom on the main level and three upstairs, the home balances flexibility with comfortable everyday living. The expansive living spaces are defined by soaring ceilings, polished concrete floors, and walls of glass that flood the interiors with natural light. Anchoring the home is a dramatic chef’s kitchen, where rich tones, custom cabinetry, and carefully selected finishes create a sophisticated, moody atmosphere. A large center island, back-of-house pantry, and striking wine display make the space as functional as it is visually compelling. Designed to embrace Southern California’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle, a retractable glass wall opens seamlessly to the covered patio and private backyard, creating a natural extension of the living space. The outdoor areas offer ample room for entertaining, relaxing, and future enhancements, including space for a pool. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with a balcony overlooking the backyard, an oversized boutique-inspired closet, and a spa-like bathroom designed to rival a luxury hotel. A freestanding soaking tub positioned within the expansive glass-enclosed shower creates a dramatic focal point while enhancing the suite’s resort-inspired feel. A rooftop deck provides an additional outdoor living space, complete with a fire feature and sunset views toward the Santa Monica Mountains. Additional highlights include integrated smart home technology, designer lighting, distinctive Shou Sugi Ban wood siding, and a curated collection of high-end finishes throughout. Located within the Beethoven Elementary School district, this Mar Vista residence combines striking architecture, thoughtful design, and exceptional indoor-outdoor flow, offering a rare opportunity to experience contemporary Westside living at its finest.
