The rare opportunity to acquire a Pacific Palisades custom-built seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom traditional-style estate of this caliber is not often offered on the open market. This 7,401-square-foot home boasts five of its seven-bedroom suites, all on the upstairs level which is not common for Pacific Palisades. It is perfectly positioned on a fully landscaped half-acre boasting 126 feet of frontage and 146 feet along the rear of the property. Located in the highly desirable 24-hour guard-gated Palisades Country Estates, this is the perfect blend of security and privacy, yet close to town. With almost $1 million recently invested, the expansive reimagined backyard is like a 5-star resort. This entertaining paradise is defined by Durango Veracruz Travertine stone (quarried in Mexico) and a spectacular 20 by 40-foot pool and 10 by 12-foot spa complete with an automatic pool cover, elaborate underwater pool lights, and surrounded by in-ground Tucci umbrellas to relax poolside. The backyard also features an extensive custom LED lighting system and an elaborate concert-grade immersive sound system. Multiple seating areas are complemented by an under-lit stone fire pit, orange trees, and lavender. An outdoor travertine fireplace with bench-style seating acts as an accent piece to a large formal dining area with an outdoor kitchen featuring a built-in Lynx gas grill, a warming oven, and oversized "L-Shaped" quartzite countertops. The rose garden, dual stone fountains, planting beds, and manicured lawn areas are all sub-irrigated. This is truly Provence in the Palisades. Elegant sophistication throughout this well-appointed classically timeless home is complimented by panoramic 180-degree vista views, allowing the perfect combination of indoor-outdoor living. The home enjoys abundant natural light throughout that compliments the property's luxury lifestyle. From the grand formal entry with cathedral ceilings to a distinctive circular staircase leading to the upper level of private living spaces. Five well-appointed full-bedroom suites, including an expansive primary suite with a sitting room, and four additional bedrooms, share this upper level. In addition, there is a work-from-home office and a centralized homework station with custom built-ins. For added convenience, a second staircase leads downstairs to the kitchen, family room, and breakfast room where gracious French doors open to the lush, landscaped gardens. The main living area has two additional bedroom suites, a large, paneled library/ study, and a powder room. A great room perfectly positioned adjacent to the kitchen, featuring multiple French doors opening directly to the sprawling magical backyard. There is also a separate laundry room with a service entrance. The property also offers a 3-car direct entrance garage and ample driveway space for additional on-site parking. Moments away from this enclave are acclaimed public and private schools, a large park, a recreation center, and endless outdoor activities including hiking, mountain biking, beach days, and bike paths. The acclaimed Palisades Village is nearby with its award-winning restaurants for casual and fine dining, boutique shopping, the gourmet market Erewhon, a movie theater, and much more. This property has been impeccably maintained and has it all, from guard-gated security to the best of nature to all day-to-day conveniences one surely appreciates.
