Property Description

Situated on coveted Alcima Avenue in Pacific Palisades is the “Abidi House”. Known for both its structural clarity, rational simplicity, and a harmony with nature, the home was designed by acclaimed architect James Tyler (FAIA), former principal architect for famed Craig Ellwood, and lovingly updated and enhanced by the current owners. Perfectly flowing with the surrounding landscape, the home succeeds in bringing the outdoors in with floor-to-ceiling windows throughout. Steel H-Columns frame the windows and keep with the Modernist tradition. From the exterior, the home is like a minimalist sculpture but on a grand scale. And yet, it functions like a traditional home. The Entrance level (2nd floor) employs a grand foyer and hall with clerestory windows, and an open great room encompassing both living and dining spaces with views of the expansive backyard and pool area. A covered outdoor dining area flows from the common spaces. An ensuite bedroom, housekeeper’s quarters, and an eat-in, gourmet kitchen complete this level. On the Lower level (1st floor), you’ll find the spectacular and private bedroom areas. In addition to the exquisite Primary Suite, you’ll find two bedrooms and bath, a media room (or indoor gym), and the sixth bedroom, currently being used as a music studio. Built with intention, all rooms of the home are generous and give way to views and a rapturous agreement with the home’s natural surroundings.
