In dreaming, designing, and executing this truly irreplaceable 5-story oceanfront property by Michael Lee Architects, all elements have been expertly woven together into the ultimate representation of absolute perfection. Earth, air, fire and water stand in a visionary blend of architecture, function, and timeless presence forever making a unique statement along one of the most sought after stretches of coastline in the world. The facade is bold and beautiful, dressed in durable micro-layered Richlite wood and R100 privacy glass, then subtly trimmed in steel. Sitting proudly overlooking expansive views of the horizon which stretch from Palos Verdes and Catalina to the Malibu coastline. Watch endless world-class surf in El Porto from one of the very best vantage points in all of Manhattan Beach - the private, open concept living room perched high above the Strand. Walls of floor-to-ceiling glass capture the shifting moods of the ocean presenting a different backdrop almost hourly. Open the room-height German-made Schüco 77 sliding doors to welcome the ocean air and expand the living area onto the deck beyond, where you can enjoy dramatic sunsets while soaking in your solid copper spa! The modern kitchen is outfitted with a full suite of premium appliance brands: Gaggenau, SubZero and Meile. Pantry shelving and appliance storage options are expertly designed right into the sleek cabinetry custom made by Design Support Woodworking. A 3-sided glass Ortal fireplace expands views of the ocean while seated at the custom built-in dining table. The master suite showcases front-and center views, blackout curtains, and switch glass in the master bath. Dramatic and discreet up and downlighting is used extensively throughout. This custom home holds numerous surprises, such as a media room with nearly 20 foot ceilings, a 2-story green wall and koi pond, top of the line Crestron automation, a four-stop, Italian-made glass and steel elevator from Elevator Boutique, 6 zone HVAC, full interior walk-in surf shower, a car lift-ready garage, a whole house water filtration + three 17 stage reverse osmosis systems, and radiant heat on all 5 floors, as well as both the master balcony and the top floor balcony decks. An innovative home office features a custom sit-stand desk with a large glass black board. Guests benefit from plenty of bonus parking nearby. Walk down the steps from the Strand onto the beach and straight out to some of the best surf in Southern California!
