PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Seemingly floating above the sand, this oceanfront estate commands breathtaking views of the Pacific and offers rare ownership of a portion of Thousand Step Beach just beneath, conveniently accessed via the property's private staircase. Emphasizing open spaces, breezes, and natural light, this soft contemporary residence, composed of two distinct parts, is marked by tranquility and luxury. The main house, surrounded by vibrant landscaping, features a great room in which wood, stone, and ever-present ocean vistas create a serene backdrop for the enjoyment of coastal living. This estate extends beyond opulence to functionality: its large kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, including a SubZero refrigerator and a Wolf range with double ovens, four burners, a griddle, and a barbecue. Three ensuite bedrooms complete the main level. Occupying its own floor, the principal suite is a haven with a large fireplace, an adjacent office, a five-piece bathroom, and spacious walk-in closets. The primary bedroom opens onto a west-facing terrace, delivering incredible Pacific, Catalina Island, and sunset views. On the lowermost level, a secondary living area features a full kitchen with a SubZero refrigerator and another of the property's decks, creating a space for entertaining or unwinding. The remarkable main residence shares its setting with an artist's studio. Car enthusiasts will revel in the estate's high-end, temperature-controlled, ocean-view garage, large enough to accommodate four vehicles. The lush grounds are as splendid as the interiors: multiple patios, verandahs, a fire pit, a hot tub, and, most notably, the private beach offer a multitude of options for taking in the Southern California lifestyle any time of the year. Control4 Smart Home System provides full automation, with centralized management of the estate's security, cameras, remote access, lighting, air conditioning, drapes, entertainment systems, televisions, and whole-house sound. Additional highlights include 400 amp power service into the property, upgraded water pipes and gas lines, and an assisted solar power system with Tesla battery packs for backup during peak usage or outages. While private, 31981 Coast Highway is located just minutes from the area's conveniences and attractions.
