Absolutely stunning coastal masterpiece built by the award winning Steigerwald-Dougherty team & designed by the renowned architects, Craig & Alex Friehauf. 5 BR, 5 BA including an attached guest house with full kitchen & bath. The splendid coastal views of the great room are a show stopper, & the elegance of the warm stained Douglas fir beams create the kind of ambiance entertainers delight. The wall of fold-away glass doors frame the blue halo of the ocean & provide the ultimate indoor outdoor experience. The expansive patio runs the length of the house overlooking the manicured backyard with a spiral staircase that leads you to the breathtaking ocean views on the roof deck. Truly an entertainers dream, the chef's kitchen includes an oversized island with honed Mont Blanc Quartzite, a convenient pot filler over the Thermador 48’' 6 burner range, with griddle & dual oven. A hidden coffee station & appliance garage is concealed by cabinet doors that open and push back into the wall. An elegant sliding barn door hides the walk-in pantry near the kitchen's beverage cooler. Before the kids rush the kitchen, have them wash up at the custom cast iron kids sink. Soak it all in next to the fire in the gas/wood burning fireplace. A gorgeous limestone tile backsplash makes it the centerpiece of the room, with floating shelves and deep cabinets below. Enjoy working with a view in the office with a built-in two person floating walnut desk & sliding doors out to the deck. Main bathroom includes terracotta Zellige tiles in the shower and full width shampoo shelf. See supplements.
