1028 Pleasantview Ave

Designed by architect Christof Jantzen, FAIA, 1028 Pleasantview Avenue is a contemporary architectural residence where a striking ipe-clad facade gives way to warm natural materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle in one of Venice's most vibrant neighborhoods. Every space has been designed to maximize light, privacy, flexibility, and a constant connection to the surrounding landscape. Anchored by approx. 68 feet of Arcadia retractable glass walls, the main living spaces dissolve into a series of ipe wood decks and a central courtyard, creating an open-air living experience that shifts throughout the day with changing light and ocean breezes. Mature, drought-tolerant landscaping inspired by Australia surrounds the home, while a tranquil fern garden inspired by San Francisco's de Young Museum introduces a quiet moment of greenery at its center. The kitchen balances sculptural design with everyday function, featuring custom walnut cabinetry, marble and stainless steel countertops, Heath Ceramics tile, a 36-inch Wolf induction range, Wolf speed oven, integrated Miele appliances, and oversized custom skylights that fill the space with natural light. Throughout the home, custom millwork, solid oak flooring, Italian lighting, bespoke marble sinks, custom cabinetry, and thoughtfully layered architectural lighting create interiors that feel both refined and welcoming. The primary suite opens directly to the landscaped courtyard, offering a peaceful retreat immersed in greenery. Its spa-inspired bath features a Duravit Luv soaking tub, custom marble vanity, dual skylights, and a generous walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms continue the home's restrained material palette, each framed by mature landscaping that gives every room the feeling of a private treehouse. A dramatic double-height flex space, finished in furniture-grade plywood and enclosed by two oversized glass garage doors, offers remarkable versatility as a creative studio, gallery, office, media lounge, fitness space, or collector's garage with room for vehicle lifts, while maintaining a direct visual connection to the central courtyard. Completing the property is a fully independent two-story ADU with its own private entrance, rooftop terrace, full kitchen, Miele washer and dryer, one-and-a-half baths, and dedicated outdoor space. Designed with the same level of architectural care as the main residence, it provides exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, a private workspace, or income potential. Additional features include custom all-weather windows, a UniFi smart home and security system with front gate access and integrated network infrastructure, and a dedicated 240-volt electric vehicle charging outlet. Located moments from Abbot Kinney, Rose Avenue, Venice Beach, and some of the Westside's most celebrated restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and coffee shops, the home balances architectural significance with everyday livability.
