About This Home
As of October 2024See Documents tab for floor plan and site plan. Consider this 3-BD, 4.5BA house a canvas to its surroundings, encouraging its residents to live as part of the magnificent landscape. This peaceful, modern retreat overlooks the Pacific Ocean, artfully infusing light throughout the house and curvaceous stairwell. The balcony frames sweeping ocean views and sunsets. The house lives like a single level. The breezy central space, featuring a living room, dining room and massive kitchen, blurs the boundaries between the interior and landscape, where the 14,600 sq-ft backyard could easily accommodate a pool. By contrast, nooks throughout the home—the office, secondary bedrooms and flex space—feel intensely secluded. The primary bedroom with ocean views is glamorously appointed with a new walk-in closet and elegant bathroom with a free-standing tub. The house is tucked off a private driveway on Hymettus Avenue, named for the Greek mountain that towers over Athens. Similarly, the house is perched quietly above the fray. “Keep-it-Funky” Leucadia is just a quick stroll with its popular beaches and notable restaurant scene. With finesse, flexibility and sense of ease, this house organically reflects the North County lifestyle. Custom built in 2010 by Carlsbad-based Beery Group Inc. Architecture, the property’s topography clearly informs the custom design. Collectively, the open living space, large covered back yard and private cocooning areas bring peace to daily life. There is a restorative quality to the serenity found here, especially at sunset and dusk with sit-down ocean views. The floorplan is abundant with flexibility while ample storage intentionally maintains an uncluttered flow. There’s an oversized 8,046-sq-ft three-car garage, three walk-in closets and an extra storage room.
