Art meets architecture in the heart of Santa Monica in this exquisite embodiment of California luxury living. Completed in 2022, this unparalleled sanctuary of tranquility and seclusion is a design masterpiece that genuinely elevates the bar for exclusivity and sophistication. Secure behind custom gates and fortress-esque walls lie masterfully designed grounds and a home that artfully blurs the distinction between indoor and outdoor space. At its heart, a breathtaking retractable ceiling creates a sky-framed tableau above an elegant sitting room, and the 21-foot automated Fleetwood doors open onto an idyllic outdoor haven, complete with a zero-edge pool, spa, and zen koi pond. The residence boasts dual elevators, seven en-suite bedrooms, and twelve bathrooms (each a study in comfort and style) and showcases lofty ceilings and a thoughtful layout throughout. The main level features a formal sitting room, comfortable family room, state-of-the-art kitchen with Gaggenau appliances, and an additional industrial-grade chef's kitchen. Upstairs, the primary suite offers stunning garden and mountain views, boutique-style closets, and an opulent heated floor bathroom, while the opposite upper wing features three additional en-suite bedrooms suitable for discerning guests. A voice-activated Josh AI smart home system, spa center with wet/dry sauna and Himalayan salt wall, state-of-the-art gym, wine cellar, media room, and two showcase garages for the automotive connoisseur leave nothing to be desired. This harmonious fusion of grace, style, and functionality deserves its status as one of the most well-designed and exclusive properties ever conceived in Santa Monica.
