Set on a 20,000 sq. ft. lot, the home enjoys serene canyon and ocean views, rich oak flooring and a spectacular 48' indoor pool & spa. Two separate solar systems service both the home & pool, enhancing energy efficiency. Outdoor amenities include a former putting green, secluded gazebo & expansive decks SUPPLEMENT BELOW: Adding to the property's versatility is an additional bedroom and bath located beneath the pool along the canyon rim ( not included in the home square footage) with canyon and ocean views, ideal for guests, a home office, fitness studio or creative retreat. Private, sunny, and blessed with refreshing ocean breezes, this old beauty is tucked away in an exclusive enclave of distinguished homes, offering a rare blend of tranquility, recreation, and timeless appeal. Properties of this caliber are seldom available. Offered in AS-IS condition, this is a comfortably wonderful home but also an exceptional opportunity to create your dream estate.
