Modern French Château with an incredible sense of contemporary style. Designer Kathy Barone and the owner dedicated countless hours to details as the chateau’s refurbishment gradually grew into a passion. This stunning house is simple to live in but sophisticated in its details. The main priorities were to preserve the home's historic details paired with meaningful contemporary design. Located above the Palos Verdes Peninsula, the chateau boasts the Queen's Necklace view - a perfect blend of blue ocean, mountains, coastline, and downtown city lights that sparkle. Behind the towering gates and the long brick driveway, the well-manicured garden provides both privacy and a serene setting of the ocean and city lights. High ceilings, ornate detail moldings, crystal chandeliers, and a cascading spiral staircase showcase the contrast of elegant and modern living that will leave you inspired. The great room with its open floor plan, Carlisle walnut floors, opens to the contemporary kitchen with built in Miele appliances and custom Poggenpohl cabinets. The powder room is designed with mother of pearl vanity and elegant Volute light coving. The entertainment floor with its full bar, pool lounge, and 12 seat theater with 20 feet ceiling is truly designed for entertainment. The wine bar and cellar have clean, contemporary lines with a touch of voguish decor. Spectacular views from master bed and bath with closet designed by Poliform. Full home automation by Crestron Home.
