A rare opportunity to liven a truly custom home where inspired design, exceptional privacy, and indoor-outdoor living come together effortlessly. Designed by the owners and Dave Studds, this one-of-a kind residence was created with extraordinary attention to detail and an intelligent use of space. From the moment you arrive, the home reveals its distinctive character. A dramatic entry framed by lush, mature landscaping creates an immediate sense of intimacy and seclusion-a feeling that carries throughout the property. Inside, warm wood, glass, natural textures and custom millwork create a sophisticated yet inviting environment. The open kitchen and living areas connect seamlessly to the outdoors through expansive folding glass doors and a pass-through bar, opening to a covered outdoor lounge, pool, and architectural water feature. Equally suited to relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining, the home lets gatherings flow naturally from indoors to out. Mature greenery surrounds the outdoor areas, creating a remarkably secluded, retreat-like setting. By day it is serene; after dark, architectural lighting transforms the atmosphere. The primary suite is a retreat of its own, with a custom integrated bed and millworker, generous closet space, and direct access to an adjoining deck enveloped by greenery-an intimate spot for morning coffee or a quiet end to the day. Custom built-ins, abundant storage, a dedicated home office, well-appointed baths, and a generous laundry room add exceptional function. A sleek fitness room features premium built-in NOHrD fitness equipment and a seamlessly concealed guest bed, so it can easily transition into comfortable accommodations for overnight guests. Even the garage has been carefully considered, with custom vertical storage that keeps gear organized while preserving valuable floor space. Multiple outdoor areas offer distinct places to dine, entertain, and unwind, culminating in a rooftop deck with ocean views, built in sink, and an incredible setting for sunset gatherings. Refined, remarkably private, and exceptionally functional, this home lives far beyond its footprint-offering an exceptional way to experience a truly custom southbay lifestyle.
