Property Description
This gorgeous contemporary estate in Santa Monica captures the very best of California indoor-outdoor living, where sculptural design, natural light, and effortless technology converge. Just steps from the coveted Santa Monica beaches, this is the coastal lifestyle buyers dream of. Step through the custom glass front door into a sun-drenched open floor plan, where soaring ceilings and walls of glass dissolve the line between inside and out. The chef's kitchen, appointed with professional-grade appliances, flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas before opening to a resort-style backyard, anchored by a sparkling built-in pool and spa and framed by clean architectural lines and lush landscaping. It's an entertainer's dream and a private oasis all at once. A floating spiral staircase leads to the primary suite retreat, appointed with refined architectural detailing, an oversized private balcony, a warm fireplace, a spa-like en-suite bath with soaking tub, and an expansive walk-in closet. Crowning this estate is a rooftop balcony made for golden-hour living, with jetliner views stretching toward the ocean, delivering front-row seats to every California sunset and plenty of room to gather and unwind long after the sun goes down. Set in the serene West of 7th neighborhood, with 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, this is more than a home, it's a private California retreat, where architectural artistry meets the ultimate indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
