Powerful in its design and historic significance, this Mills Act oceanfront residence set on an approximately 10,400+ square foot parcel presents sprawling seaside living. Perfectly positioned away from the street within the coveted Rockledge enclave, this exemplary Spanish-revival style estate originally designed by architect Garret Van Pelt enjoys a setting of unrivaled beauty and privacy with idyllic grounds sheltered by mature landscaping. True to Mediterranean-style living, the residence is introduced by a gated courtyard revealing the home’s explosive head-on views of the Pacific. While generous in size, the home emits a sense of intimacy and romance with classic design elements including arched windows and passages, wood-framed French doors, beamed ceilings, and fireplaces finished in smooth stucco. Although built more than 9 decades ago, the home has been refit with modern amenities such as an elevator, library, billiard’s room, collector’s wine room and award-worthy home theater designed by Theos Kalomirakis, complete with a concession stand and lobby. With white-water views from nearly every room and spacious grounds not often seen along the coastline, this enchanting residence promises a life of splendor. Complete with City and Coastal Commissioner approved plans by Morris Skenderian, Mills Act tax incentives and access to the beach below via a gated staircase exclusive to Rockledge community residents are additional highlights.

Residential Low Density Zone
This zone is intended for low-density, single-family residential areas, which will provide a suitable environment for family life for residents. The zone is intended to provide a quiet living environment free from rooming and boarding houses, commercial and industrial activities, and, to the greatest degree possible, free from other than local vehicular traffic. All new development in this zone shall be compatible with the immediate residential neighborhood with respect to scale, mass and height. The purpose of this zone is to allow low-profile, single-family residences that preserve existing public and private views and minimize building mass and bulk in a manner that is sensitive to their terrain and to environmental constraints.
