Likewise for the charming veranda that runs along the side of the home on an upper level. "It's been so incredibly well cared for and updated over the years," says Forbes of the home, which was completed in 1996. The ground level boasts a particularly well-executed floorplan: A hallway leads to a bright, beachfront bedroom suite made more luxurious with its private access to the terrace, large guest closet and a bath- room with marble walk-in shower and vanity. There's another bedroom on this floor, which can easily transform into a cozy den; and extra niceties like a bubbling indoor-outdoor spa and a wood-crafted sauna with room for six. "You can almost have a personal spa here," says Forbes. Notable also is the oversized garage, with parking for five cars ("If you have smaller cars you can fit seven in there," Forbes remarks), and room for up to three more vehicles right outdoors. At this property, the generous scenes of sand, sea and sky are always fresh—seen from different perspectives, and engaged by the windows and outdoor living spaces, all designed to savor this special point on the Strand. Views reach from Palos Verdes to Santa Monica, and at night, a pale glow of lights shimmer along the coast. And here, at one of the Strand's best points, is an elegant house with the comfortable ease of a home. A R C H I T E C T U R E + D E S I G N
