Firmly built into the lush hills of Palos Verdes Estates, this masterfully designed residence emanates the classic Spanish architecture that has come to define this desirable city. Custom built by the current owner, and brought to fruition by esteemed architect, George Sweeney, and the reputable Esfahani Construction Company, this is a product of architectural integrity and quality craftsmanship. The light, stucco exterior draws you into a detailed mosaic floor entry that leads to the private courtyard, where manicured garden beds and a grand fountain set the tone for this elegant oasis. Walker Zanger Beaumaniere limestone flooring, a soaring groin vault ceiling, and a custom wrought iron railing greet you as you step into the foyer. The distinguished floor plan flows into a gourmet kitchen showcasing commercial-grade amenities (even a warming drawer), and an inviting family room. Travel through arched doorways and across newly refinished white oak wood flooring to reach the formal living spaces. A masonry fireplace with a cast stone mantel provides a warm gathering place, as a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams highlights the home’s raw artistry. In both the living and dining room, French doors lead out to a generous veranda that is perfect for outdoor meals. Ideally secluded on the upper level is the impressive primary suite that incorporates the walk-in closet and a separate sitting room opening to its own west-facing veranda. Embrace stunning sunsets from this sweeping perch overlooking the terraced backyard and the coastal views just beyond. The imaginative use of indoor-outdoor living even graces the lower level. Along with three bedrooms and two pristine bathrooms, this sweeping floor includes a sophisticated, hand-crafted library and office with two custom workstations. Spend your days here, beneath the elegant coffered ceilings, surrounded by the built-in bookshelves, a convenient wet bar, and timeless French doors connecting to the covered back patio. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or a luxurious space to entertain, the backyard is just the spot. Natural in appearance, an artificial lawn encompasses the dazzling pool and spa where you can host under the pergola as guests wander the meticulously maintained grounds. A clear vision, superior construction, and a spectacular location culminate in this architectural feat moments away from Palos Verdes Intermediate and High School.
