The house is not, however, theatrical. It's
contemporary—crisp, bright, and calm,
supporting an easy, open flow. With wide
glassy apertures helping to blur the lines
between indoors and out, the space
expresses a distinctly alfresco feeling and
congenial air. There is a low-key exqui-
siteness in its clean lines and glistening
surfaces made brighter by a beaming
white-toned interior that only amplifies the
great blue beyond.
The first encounter with the house comes
via the courtyard, which hosts two dwell-
ings: the main house and, just behind, a
generous guest house with living area, bed
and bath, and an upper loft space to use
as a gym, an office, art studio or another
function of one's imaginings. A large
center-island kitchen and work station area,
all separated by a fireplace leading to the
formal dining and oceanfront family room,
makes for a sunny entrance to the main
house. Melding form and fashion, the chef's
kitchen is wonderfully airy and beautifully
finished with smooth countertops, show-
case appliances and slick fixtures, warmed
Dazzan of The Agency. "Because of this,"
he notes, "the property offers ocean views
all the way back to the guest house, which
is rare for a colony property." What's more,
"The oceanfront living room and the primary
bedroom both have sweeping coastline
views of the Santa Monica Bay to Palos
Verdes, all the way to the sunsets in the
west towards Point Dume." In seizing on
its outlook, the house is never in want of a
dramatic backdrop. The curtain does not
fall—the show goes on.
