Thoughtfully remodeled modern home on a palm tree-lined street in the tree section of Manhattan Beach originally designed by architect John Blanton. Featured design elements showcase wide plank white oak floors throughout and La Cantina folding doors that open the lower living spaces to a private walled courtyard and expansive Trex decking in front yard, and a flagstone pool and spa in the backyard. All new windows, smooth stucco and mahogany wood exterior with beautiful finishes throughout honor the home’s original design. Natural light fills the living room complemented by a large wood-burning fireplace with basalt stone hearth. A wall of folding doors open to the garden and tiled courtyard with lounge seating and fire pit. The fully-renovated well-appointed kitchen features integrated Subzero Refrigerator and 140 Bottle Wine Refrigerator with Caesarstone countertops that extend outside to the pool-side bar. The kitchen opens to the dining room with seamless access via folding doors to the front garden and backyard pool and spa for effortless indoor to outdoor living. A first floor powder room features local hand-painted tile floor and a floating sink. The second floor has two light-filled guest bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, balcony overlooking the front garden, and a custom bathroom that has a marble slab surround bathtub and marble vanity. The master bedroom features a balcony with views of the courtyard, custom closets and spa-style bathroom with a floating double vanity, stone floors and shower. Additional amenities include: laundry in master closet and in garage, HVAC, new plumbing and electrical, whole-house dehumidifier, a three car garage with plenty of storage, fruit trees, privacy hedges, drip irrigation and fully fenced property. This is a designer’s home and won’t last long.
