whose firm Denton Development, which
completed the home in 2014, is responsi-
ble for a slew of modern, family homes in
the Beach Cities, and specifically in this
corner of Redondo Beach—and local devel-
oper Richard Haynes.
In keeping with the home's smart design,
sleeping spaces are gathered upstairs, with
the exception of a first-floor bedroom. "It's
great for a mother-in-law suite or a kids'
game room," says Bisignano-Capper, noting
how it's nicely separate from busy public
spaces. On the second floor, there are four
bedrooms, all en suite, with white bath-
rooms recently renovated with colorful new
tile and metal finishes; all classic silhou-
ettes in gleaming brass, metal or gold. The
primary bedroom suite, for instance, has
an elegant bathroom with a big dual vanity
decked in veiny Calacatta Gold marble.
You can refresh in the white tub or walk-in
shower before heading to one of the dual
walk-in closets in this nicely cloistered suite,
where large-scale glass windows usher in
golden beach light during the morning, and
later, the strong hues of sunset.
While it's a relatively newer residence
for the area, the home is a classic in terms
of its forever appeal and comfort, particu-
larly at the beach. Rooms are bright and
open, and the floorplan includes every
needed space—from the most pragmatic,
like lots of bedrooms with private bath-
rooms—to those you didn't know you need,
but are so glad to have—like separate guest
quarters, or a private yard to use year round.
It ultimately makes for a versatile and
comfortable address from where you can
explore the endless perks of this superb
environment. "Here you have the proxim-
ity to the beach, while also being insulated
from the beach crowd," states Bisigna-
no-Capper, a longtime resident of the area.
"You get the privacy and seclusion, but also
the convenience." She's talking about the
easy and equal access—to ocean, swim-
ming and sunsets; cafes, boutiques and
groceries—that make life at Avenue A ideal
for those who love Beach Cities life, but at
a slower and sweeter pace. "On the week-
ends," she points out, "We either walk or
ride our bikes. The car is parked in the
garage, and there it stays."
