Step through the grand double-door entry into a sunlit foyer where sweeping ocean views unfold before you. Rich wood floors set a warm and inviting tone, while the natural beauty of the Pacific is immediately on display. To the left, a stylish powder room offers stone counters, a custom vanity, and a sleek sink, creating an ideal space for guests to refresh. Descending just a few steps, the home opens into a stunning sunken living room with soaring vaulted ceilings adorned with exposed wood beams and skylights that bathe the space in light. A striking fireplace creates a cozy focal point, while a sophisticated wet bar with granite counters, built-in cabinetry, and a bar sink elevates the space for entertaining. Accordion-style sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, revealing an expansive oceanfront deck with glass railings. From here, panoramic coastline views stretch from the sands below to the distant skyline of Los Angeles. To the right of the foyer, the chef's kitchen impresses with a blend of modern amenities and timeless design. Recessed lighting highlights the wood floors, granite counters, and an illuminated stone backsplash. A six-burner Viking range with double ovens, a Viking hood fan, Subzero fridge and freezer, and Miele microwave make this kitchen fully equipped for culinary excellence. A large island with built-in storage and a prep sink anchors the space, complemented by a granite breakfast bar. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the formal dining area, where sliding glass doors open to a second deck, once again framing those incredible ocean vistas. Throughout the home, modern conveniences abound, including central air conditioning and heating, a tankless water heater, and direct access to the two-car garage. Upstairs, a skylight brightens the hallway leading to a spacious guest bedroom, where vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, a ceiling fan, and generous natural light create a peaceful retreat. This room includes a walk-in closet and an en suite bathroom with tile floors, a vanity, and a shower over tub. Across the hall, the primary suite offers luxurious comfort, complete with plush carpet flooring, stained glass accents, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, and a gas fireplace. Sliding glass doors open to a private deck overlooking the ocean. The en suite bathroom features a built-in jetted tub, a spacious walk-in shower with dual showerheads, a private water closet, and an oversized walk-in closet, while an additional door conveniently accesses the garage level. The lower level reveals additional living space with wood floors, recessed lighting, and more ocean views. A secondary family room opens directly to another oceanfront deck. To the right, a bedroom with high ceilings and direct deck access features an en suite bath with wood floors, a mirrored closet, and a tiled shower. Another guest bedroom across the hall offers sliding glass doors to the deck, wood floors, recessed lighting, and mirrored closet doors. A Jack and Jill en suite bathroom, complete with stone counters, a vanity, and a tiled shower stall, connects the two rooms. Nearby, a laundry area with a stacked washer and dryer is tucked behind a sliding wood door and leads to a recreation space with a ping-pong table and additional storage with mirrored closets. For ultimate privacy, a separate guest suite completes the lower level, offering wood floors, a kitchenette, dining area, and sliding glass doors to a private ocean-view deck with beach access. The guest bedroom includes a mix of wood floors and soft carpeting, a walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with a walk-in shower and vanity. A dedicated elevator connects every level of this thoughtfully designed residence, where luxury meets comfort and spectacular coastal scenery surrounds you at every turn.
