The Goal
To design a large-scale, view-oriented residence that maximizes the site’s spectacular ocean exposure — creating layered indoor-outdoor living spaces that flow from the upper entry level down to the pool deck, with every major room oriented to capture the view.
The Details
From the street, the home presents a sleek, low-slung profile of stone and smooth stucco volumes. Toward the ocean, the home steps down across three full levels, with cantilevered balconies, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and tall windows that frame uninterrupted views. An infinity-edge pool and spa anchor the rear yard alongside a sunken seating area and fireplace, creating a resort-style outdoor living experience. Inside, a dramatic open-to-below great room anchors the plan, with the chef’s kitchen, formal dining, music room, and family room all opening to the view-facing decks.
The Materials
A contemporary palette of stone, smooth white stucco, and dark metal fascia and window frames defines the exterior, paired with vertical wood slat screens at the entry. Expansive black aluminum-framed glazing maximizes light and view, while glass guardrails on the decks and pool area preserve unobstructed sightlines to the ocean beyond.
