The home sits well back from the street providing abundant privacy - a double set of automatic gates enter to a circular stone drive and the twin two car garages.

Walls of glass open wide to the outside deck, with a massive center island providing a social centerpiece and a separate butler’s kitchen. There is virtually no kitchen ‘need’ unmet. With a major remodel just completed, exquisite finishes and thoughtful planning are evident throughout. Five amply sized bedroom suites, with two suites on the main level. The baths are all updated, beautiful, and unique. Upstairs, the large media room and master suite both look out over the sweeping views. Fireplaces in the downstairs great room and upstairs media den provide a welcoming glow, with a firepit on the lower terrace providing a wonderful evening outdoor gathering spot. The home has been meticulously maintained and magnificently updated – as much as is visible, many of the extraordinary quality features are in the unseen. 34861 Doheny Place is an extraordinary offering – the chance to own a marvelous bluff-top estate with style and substance.
