PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Featured on the cover of the February 2017 issue of Architectural Digest, this one-of-a-kind, 1.25 acre, ocean view compound captures endless vistas of the coastline, ocean and islands not to mention spectacular sunsets from every vantage point. Nothing like this exists along the coastline of Orange County. Reached via a gated and private motor court, the main residence is a capacious and ethereal dwelling. Laid out on a single level, it opens to the expansive outside entertaining areas that surround it all reveling in the views. Light, spacious and perfectly detailed, this home is the embodiment of California living. The magnificent gardens lead to a secluded and private garden oasis, replete with a lap pool and pavilion. Carefully blended into the landscape, this is a private haven where one can read a book or host a hundred friends for a summertime poolside soire. The separate guest house is comfortably appointed and features ocean + city views. Vision, passion, and refined study were combined into an alchemy here, the result of which is this sublime and understated retreat. It took more than a decade to complete this property, which will undoubtedly continue to provide an exceptional setting for all who have the pleasure of spending time here.
