About This Home

As of October 2023

Newly remodeled and utterly unique, 534 Catalina Drive is truly stunning from top to bottom. The ultimate California exterior living delivered by Garden Design Studio combined with the detailed and luxurious finishes curated by Rove Design makes this home a must see showstopper. An outdoor entertainer's paradise features a large seated dining area under custom pergola, built in heaters, custom lighting, built-in sofa surrounding a large brick fire pit. The bbq, smoker, sink and bar refrigerator are built into custom honed and leathered Taj Mahal counter tops, leading to the “spool” lined with glossy zellige tile, honed limestone coping and a large SunBrite flatscreen TV. The sophistication continues on the interior with the hand painted lime washed walls, Scalamandre wallpaper, Missoni Carpet stair runners, European antique fireplaces and designer lighting throughout. Calcutta Viola honed marble counter tops take the lead in the chef’s kitchen along with a wolf range, dual ovens, subzero refrigerator and walk-in custom pantry. The former living room had been transformed into a speakeasy reminiscent of the roaring twenties, complete with custom brass shelving, Thomas Lavin Finishes, full kitchen sink, pellet ice maker, fridge and more. The expansive living room is highlighted by the Italian quarried Limestone fireplace mantle, vintage Murano crystal flush mount ceiling light and a custom built fluted bookcase. The expansive master retreat boasts an imported fireplace purchased from a French Chateau, flanked by art collections and Armoire-style coffee bar with hammered sink and drink refrigerator. The massive Carrera master bathroom features a large shower and free standing bathtub. The second level has three additional bedrooms along with two additional full bathrooms. The 5th bedroom located is on the lower level complete with an en-suite bathroom. The home features a custom built Savant sound system with full house speakers, TV controls, security cameras, in-house Ipads and phone capabilities.
