This Magnificent coastal estate on the southwest facing corner lot is ideally located in the heart of Hermosa Beach. This stunning custom-built Italian Villa was designed by famed Architect Louis Tomaro and infuses architectural precision and meticulous craftsmanship with artistic vision and stately elegance. This home’s grand, Old World, luxury appeal takes center stage and owns front row seats to a lifetime of memorable sunsets. Nearly 4,000 square feet of impressive interiors are showcased in the versatile, well-appointed floor plan. Stylish, masterful discernment is evident with stone laid archways, detail laden ceilings, richly carved crown moldings, alluring stone and hickory wood floors that beautifully complement each other. The sculptural staircase leads to the second level continues to display the tradition of things well done. The centrally anchored, tastefully appointed gourmet kitchen radiates comfort, elegance and function with premier appliances, custom cabinetry, and designer palettes. The adjacent dining area invites family dinners and large-scale entertaining. The main living area has retracting walls of glass that open fully to present the expansive sun-drenched stone patio that seamlessly connects to glistening sand, rolling waves and that idyllic Pacific Ocean back drop. The luxurious functionality of the beach front patio heightens the exterior lounging/entertaining level as fresh ocean breezes, a BBQ station, and a fire pit with built in conversation areas – all deliver the truest beach city lifestyle. Should you desire a little more privacy, meander to the roof top deck which provides a different perspective with a higher view. The primary suite is notably spacious and intimate with an enviable walk-in closet, private veranda, and breathtaking views. The adjoining bath is soothing decadence with inspired Mediterranean soaking tub vibes. The additional bedrooms are all equally noteworthy and display their own unique charm. The lowest level of the home offers even more versatile living space options, imagine - guest quarters, home office/studio/library or private screening room. In addition to the beautifully finished 2 car garage, there are 5 additional parking spots – highly valuable in this area. Endless local amenities, including Award Winning Schools, coveted parks and trails, highly respected dining establishments, brand and boutique style shopping and neighborly community events all accentuate this location.
