This custom designed coastal mediterranean home is quintessential beach living at it’s best. The panoramic views from the rooftop deck are breathtaking and provide unobstructed views from the Santa Monica Mountains down the coast of Palos Verdes. On a clear day you can see as far as Catalina. The sound of the ocean waves are mesmerizing and cathartic. The taste of the salt water floats in the air. Located two blocks from the beach, and a short distance from Hermosa Pier, Downtown Hermosa, dining, shopping and outdoor recreation. The beach lifestyle awaits. This sprawling three level home is designed with a spacious floor plan and an abundance of windows to maximize sunshine and views. A winding staircase greets you at the second floor entry, immediately drawing your eyes up. Two of the four bedrooms can be found on this level, including the primary bedroom with ensuite and walk-in closet. Downstairs, the lowest level has two bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom. One of the lower level bedrooms opens up to the enclosed outdoor seating area. The third and main floor contains two living spaces, one of which is the formal living room. The formal living room is equipped with a fireplace, coffered ceilings and balcony with ocean views. The open concept design allows for a seamless transition into the dining and kitchen areas with clear sight lines from the kitchen island to the glimmering water. The bonus living area could be designed with many uses in mind: a game room furnished with a pool table, a media room with a comfortable viewing couch, home gym, office or a virtual learning hub just to name a few. This home’s rooftop deck takes it up a notch. After climbing the spiral staircase, you will be breathless as you take in the views. Relax on an easy chair, sit by a fire pit and appreciate the abundance that a life at the beach brings. The views are glorious from dawn to dusk. If the cool breeze isn't keeping the temperature down enough, the home is equipped with an HVAC system. There is a two car garage and an additional area for a third vehicle. The word “Hermosa” means beautiful and the lifestyle that this home bestows is nothing less than beautiful.
