Perched high in the coveted Fernwood enclave of Topanga Canyon, and possessing some of the best panoramic views of the state park, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a rare blend of natural beauty, thoughtful design, and long-term pride of ownership. Framed by two seasonal creeks, one on each side, creating a tranquil, storybook setting filled with flowering gardens that attract hummingbirds and butterflies. It was positioned to take full advantage of its surroundings, as the home was architected for the generous 1/3 of an acre site, capturing sweeping views of Topanga State Park from the living room, dining room, guest bedroom, and primary suite. There is an ease to life here that comes from both intention and care. The home has been cherished by its original owner since it was first built, evolving gracefully over time with major infrastructure upgrades that support both beauty and peace of mind. Ocean breezes drift through in the afternoons, keeping summers gentle, while winters remain soft and mild. Even on mornings when the coast below is wrapped in fog, this hillside perch often greets the day in golden light. Inside, the spaces feel expansive, with room to gather, create, and simply be. An additional large above ground basement space offers flexibility in four versatile rooms, ideal as a workshop, gym, office, and/or a creative studio. Throughout, there is a quiet harmony between sustainability and comfort, with systems designed not just for efficiency, but for a sense of ease and self-sufficiency. Outdoors, the home continues its conversation with the land. Flowering lush landscaping and mature trees invite you to slow down and stay awhile. Whether it's morning coffee with the canyon waking around you or evenings under a sky full of stars, every moment here feels peaceful. This is more than a home it's a place to breathe deeper, to reconnect, and to live in rhythm with the landscape. Major infrastructure upgrades include solar panels (2019) and a Tesla whole house backup battery (2020) resulting in an Edison designation of net energy use lower than efficient homes. Enhancing comfort is a powerful A/C system (2018) and a new heater (2024). Fire safety and durability have been carefully prioritized, featuring cement-style siding, an exterior fire suppression sprinkler system (expanded to the garage in 2019), newer decks and roof built to modern fire code standards and steel exterior doors. The beautiful mangaris wood decking is naturally resistant to termites and fire, offering both longevity and style. Additional highlights include a second septic pit (2023), a septic aerator system (2020), an 8-zone irrigation system for lush landscaping and new double-paned, double-tempered windows throughout the home, including the basement and garage, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort.
