About This Home
As of August 2021This exquisite one-of-a-kind property has been re-imagined by esteemed local architects David Hertz and Charles Ward and is for the most discerning of buyers. With architectural features such as exposed wood beams and ceilings, sleek steel finishes, polished concrete and wood flooring, a loft-style secondary lounge area upstairs, and custom architectural glass doors and windows. Natural light floods into the open living and dining areas through the surrounding floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors. The chefs kitchen offers an ultra-modern design using open shelving to accentuate the open atmosphere and provide plentiful storage. The primary suite comes complete with an open terrace that spans the entire width of the second story and looks out to the picturesque backyard, where youll find luscious greenery, and a beautiful spa and swimming pool. Also featured in the backyard is a second structure that serves as a bar and gym, and will have completed the plan check process for an ADU to have an RTI Ready To Issue status. Centrally located to Abbot Kinney, the beach, and all Venice has to offer, this private oasis is a must see!
