A symphony of refined design and architectural sophistication. A scenic expanse of coastal life and the sparkling Pacific unfolds before a rare 52’ of unobstructed view frontage, crowning this newly constructed Contemporary-style residence. Every aesthetic and structural element was considered
in composing this collection of elegant, yet comfortable living spaces, resulting in an elevated environment that perfectly captures the cultivated interiors and splendor of the natural setting. The 3,215 square-foot home with four bedrooms, four en-suite baths, a powder bath, an open living room
and kitchen, and a formal dining room and bar is a feat of technical engineering – carefully executed without a single square foot of dissapted space. All of the accommodations present experiences enhanced by captivating coastline and sunset views, as well as individual access to generous terraces with surrounding specimen plantings through over-height glass doors and pocket-walls of glass. An abundant assemblage of amenities were employed to enrich the inhabitants’ lifestyle opportunities – a small selection includes: generous appointment of White Oak, Limestone, imported slab stones, Cleaf Italian cabinetry, and a ‘floating’ system of walls and soffits with concealed lighting; resort-inspired baths in every suite; three Western pocket doors spanning 32’ and 22’; an 8’ linear fireplace in the main living room; Thermador appliances; service pantry equipped with built-in coffee/espresso and microwave/warming; an entry-level guest suite; a stunning primary suite with a statement bath clad almost entirely in book-matched slab stone with a free-standing soaking tub, a walk-in wardrobe, and a 6’ linear fireplace. Additional technical advancements and offerings include construction comprised of 70% concrete and steel with the application of 40 caissons; an elevator servicing all four levels; a 16’ two-car garage with capacity for two lifts for additional vehicles; four- zone HVAC; home automation for light, sound, and window coverings; and a custom-built exterior steel stair enabling access to the uppermost point of the premises – affording a spectacular panorama. Further distinguishing this exceptional presentation – fully approved plans and permits to build an 850 square-foot dwelling (ADU), with sweeping views and convenient access and parking located just above the parcel on Crest View. A significant portion of the ADU preparation has already been completed.
