M A R K E T A - L I S T I N G | 3 0 P O R T U G U E S E B E N D R O A D List Price $13,975,000 P R E S E N T E D B Y FREDDY THOMAS DRE# 2107890 310.990.8892 OF THE AGENCY AND FARRAH BRITTANY DRE# 1933070 424.230.3712 OF THE AGENCY AND LISA OPTICAN DRE# 01960751 310.351.6646 OF DOUGL AS ELLIMAN is listing the property for $13.975 million with Farrah Brittany, both of The Agency, and Lisa Optican of Douglas Elliman. The influence of Hahn is visible in the meticulous design and architectural details that are integrated throughout the property, and it is the estate's connection to the seminal mid-century figure that "adds a unique historical significance and enhances the overall value of both living at this estate—and the estate itself," Thomas says. "It reflects an architectural pedigree and craftsmanship that discerning buyers appreciate." Hahn's influence hits immediately upon entering the updated 6,200-square-foot, single-level residence where one is besieged by views from every angle via a strategic placement of glass walls and windows. The amply amenitized five-bedroom and five-and- a-half bath abode is a procession of showcase spaces highlighting a lavish primary suite that is ensconced in its own wing and features a private balcony overlooking lush grounds and unprecedented ocean views; a gourmand, host-ready chef's kitchen endowed with a Wolf range, dual Sub-Zero refrigerators and a wine fridge; and an expansive living room with soaring ceilings and floor-to- ceiling windows offering all-encompassing panoramas. Outside is a covered dining porch, a sparkling pool, barbeque, firepit and pizza oven. Elsewhere on the grounds is a guest house, stables, tennis court and chapel. As for those grounds, imagine "an outdoor oasis unlike anything you've ever seen," touts Thomas, who, despite his effusive assurance, might be under-selling it. The setting defines sublime. Not only is it bucolic, but the landscaped gardens, fruit orchards, olive trees and vineyards that produce award-winning wines support sustainable living, as well. Various entertaining areas, meanwhile, are perfect for hosting gatherings or stealing a quiet moment. "It's easy to get lost in the serenity of this quintessential mid-century ranch," Thomas concedes. One might choose to stay lost in reverie were there not so much to discover in real-life: exceptional quality, seclusion and privacy, and an architecture of historical consequence. One is pressed to find a blemish. Add to this prime proximity to the best of of Hermosa, Redondo and Manhattan Beach and only one question remains: How is one to retreat from the world when in a world all its own? As it happens, elegantly, easily, and conveniently. 9.22.23 | DIGS.NET 69
