Originally designed by the architect for herself, this exceptional gated estate offers a rare combination of ocean views, privacy, architectural sophistication, and effortless single-level living. Generously proportioned rooms open to resort-like outdoor spaces, thoughtfully designed to create seclusion from neighboring properties and passersby. The aesthetic is one of timeless elegance, with refined details and a sense of understated luxury throughout. Framed by a manicured canopy of trees, views of the ocean unfold from within the home as well as from its extensive patios and outdoor living spaces. Equally suited to a quiet private retreat or an expansive setting for gathering with family and friends, this is a home that adapts beautifully to the moment, offering both serenity and a natural sense of occasion. The current owners have thoughtfully updated the home to respect the architect's original vision. Interior features include 11' ceilings, limestone floors, glazed walls with trimless flush base, 4 fireplaces, radiant heat, skylights, gourmet appliances, wine fridge, copper gutters, slate roof, gas generator, and a soft water system.

Pebble Beach, located between Pacific Grove and Carmel-by-the-Sea, is a coastal and resort Del Monte Forest neighborhood with iconic golf links and cypress-lined bluffs. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around 17-Mile Drive at The Lodge at Pebble Beach, where valet circles, pro shops, and terrace dining set a polished, outdoors-first rhythm. Architecture leans toward low-slung coastal estates and shingled retreats tucked behind wind-shaped trees. The Lone Cypress and Bird Rock turn shoreline walks into a moving postcard of surf and stone. Pebble Beach Golf Links and The Bench anchor the social calendar with tee times and sunset tables. Spanish Bay’s dunes and boardwalks add a quieter, beach-forward counterpoint.
