A residence of such originality -a timeless architectural beauty recently completed on 1.36 acres with views over Santa Monica Canyon and the shimmering ocean. Conceived by Richard Keating and brought to life by residential architect Steven Giannetti, this great estate draws comparisons to the Getty Center in its construction. Interiors of the residence echo a museum ambiance, with ceilings soaring to 26 feet, galleries with 8-foot wide hallways. Generously proportioned at approximately 14,645 square feet and offering 4 bedrooms plus maid's room and 7.5 baths. The home artfully invites the outdoors in through floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive glass pocket doors, serene fountains and covered lanais. Venetian-inspired wine cellar, featuring a tasting room and separate storage cellar that can accommodate a total of 10,000 bottles. The harmonious landscaping by Calvin Abe brings further inspiration for entertaining, as does the outdoor room, surrounded by ponds, a lap pool, and spa.
