Ideally situated on a hilltop in Manhattan Beach and encompassing nearly half an acre, this superior estate caters to the most discerning buyer. Offering five bedrooms and six baths in 6604 square feet on a 20K+ square foot lot, this magnificent home features luxe materials and a myriad of indoor and outdoor spaces for luxurious living and entertaining. Enter through the iron gates and into the dazzling entryway, grounded with inlaid travertine floors and a striking circular staircase; four bedrooms and baths offer serene private living quarters and spacious baths and closets. A family room with onyx fireplace and a large custom bar opening to the courtyard offers impressive entertaining for family and friends alike. The courtyard with a peaceful fountain and fireplace is the perfect spot for gathering or relaxing outside. The breathtaking backyard includes an enormous lawn, regulation lap pool with inlaid fountains and a jacuzzi, a covered poolside terrace, and a full-size sport court, all grandfathered prior to SB 330 – a wondrous feature that cannot be duplicated in new construction. A below-ground, temperature-controlled wine cellar preserves your favorite vintages. Dramatic views of downtown Los Angeles and the Santa Monica Mountains are obtained from several vantage points on the second floor, including a private balcony with outdoor barbecue. The gourmet kitchen includes a huge central island with seating, cooktop, and sink; stainless appliances and dual ovens create a Chef’s atmosphere. A casual dining area is adjacent, as well as a welcoming cozy family room with fireplace. The formal dining room boasts a custom tray ceiling and ocean views and is bathed in natural light. The decadent Primary Suite has sweeping city and mountain vistas, a fireplace, two custom closets with ample built-ins, a separate sitting room/office, and a well-appointed, spa-like bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a fireplace. A detached guest/office suite provides its own entrance and incredible views from the private second-floor balcony. Stunning custom millwork and molding throughout, polished hardwood floors, bespoke cabinetry, a four-car garage, and a host of amenities make this a splendid home for family and friends or hosting lavish parties. Perched on a hilltop in one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Manhattan Beach, this property speaks for itself.
