22040 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY
With 80 feet of beach frontage, non-stop sunrise-to-sunset ocean and island views, and open interiors, this Carbon Beach contemporary is both private refuge and luxurious gathering place. Four separate decks and vanishing walls of glass define a lifestyle of relaxed elegance just steps from the sand. A gated entry opens into a spacious, palm-lined courtyard leading to the glass front door, which offers a first tantalizing view of the ocean. Within, tranquil, ocean-view spaces are luminous with Portuguese limestone floors, wide windows, and the serene illumination of an enormous atrium skylight. The indoor-outdoor living room opens seamlessly to a fullwidth beachfront deck complete with ceramic tile floors, al fresco dining area, Lynx barbecue center, and built-in hot tub. Inside, the spectacular entertaining space features a fireplace, a conversation lounge, and a beautiful dining area that opens into an interior garden courtyard. The adjacent kitchen is equipped for the professional chef, with granite countertops, an island with bar seating, soffit lighting, a chandelier breakfast area, and sliding doors to the oceanfront deck. Also on the home’s main level are two en-suite bedrooms, one currently serving as a gym, plus a powder room. On the upper floor, accessible by stairs or elevator and arrayed around a mezzanine style walkway beneath the atrium skylight, there are three oceanfront suites, each with a view balcony, and a laundry room with a dogwashing station. The primary suite is a serene retreat with fireplace, large walk-in closet, spa-style bath, and a separate office with sink and beverage cooler. The home has numerous smart-home features, including three-zone air conditioning, security, central vacuum, water filtration, and more. Located on one of Southern California’s most desirable stretches of coastline, this stunning architectural residence is both contemporary and timeless. $40,000,000.
