Originally designed as the sellers’ forever home, this custom coastal residence captures phenomenal ocean and Catalina Island views while showcasing exceptional craftsmanship, intentional design, and timeless materials throughout. Solid Eastern Cherry floors anchor throughout, creating warmth and continuity from room to room. The kitchen is both functional and artful, featuring Brazilian soapstone countertops, an extra-large built-in side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, custom cabinetry, and a rare hand-carved soapstone sink sculpted from a single block — a true statement piece. Solid brass Baldwin hardware, thoughtfully selected and carried throughout the home, underscores the level of detail. Bathrooms are appointed with imported sodalite from Somalia and Mexican travertine, highlighted by a Kohler soaking tub with ceiling fill, spa-style rain shower, and premium European fixtures.
The primary suite is upstairs yet entry level from the front door, allowing convenient single-level living. An additional bedroom and flexible office space (easily converted into another bedroom) complete the upper level. Downstairs, a private guest suite with a separate entry from the garage and side yard offers ideal flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or income potential. Designed for both sustainability and resilience, the home includes a fully paid solar system installed approximately three years ago, a whole home battery backup supply, and a dedicated Tesla wall charger – providing energy efficiency, lower utility costs, and peace of mind. Additional features include a two-car garage with extra off-street parking, a separate woodworking room (ideal gym or studio), spa-ready space off the primary suite, and a pre-framed space for a future interior elevator. The garden is a private retreat with mature producing avocado, pomegranate, Meyer, Persian and Jaffa lemon, and a macadamia tree, along with herb beds and raised vegetable planters.
Located just two blocks from the iconic palm-lined Paseo del Mar, Pt. Fermin Park, and the Korean Bell, this is a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully crafted coastal home where enduring design meets sweeping ocean views.
