Description
Brilliantly positioned along prestigious Ocean Boulevard, this rare architectural masterpiece boasts unparalleled, unobstructed views of the channel, Newport Harbor, Catalina, and The Wedge. Designed by Geoff Sumich and built by Nicholson Companies, this 7,834-square-foot estate seamlessly blends modern luxury with natural elements, offering a lifestyle rich in amenities. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls vanish at the touch of a button, welcoming the ocean breeze and framing endless coastal vistas. A private front courtyard with a firepit and water feature leads to an open-concept living space featuring large-paneled travertine flooring that extends seamlessly indoors and out, an 8-foot linear fireplace set into a striking Aspen Wood Veneer contrast wall, and curated display niches against walls of glass. Adjacent to the living and dining room, glass doors and ambient lighting highlight a striking, temperature-controlled 500-bottle wine storage, beautifully designed with elegant display racks. The gourmet kitchen boasts a massive honed quartzite island, Sub-Zero refrigerators, fridge drawers, a pot-filler, a premium Bertazzoni double oven with griddle, and a butler's kitchen with an additional dishwasher, prepping sink, instant hot water, and a premium Wolf appliance suite, including an induction cooktop, microwave, and oven. Disappearing walls reveal the grand central courtyard with a hot tub, dual cascading water features, and serene ambiance. An upstairs landing of refined space features a media/game room with well-appointed kitchenette, multiple TVs, and gaming center. The primary quarters boasts a heated deck, presenting breathtaking and varied vantage points of Big Corona, Little Corona, Pirates and China Cove, boats gliding through the channel, the Balboa and Newport Piers, and the dramatic waves at The Wedge. A serene fireplace retreat enhances the ambiance, while 2 spa-inspired baths, positioned on opposite sides of the wing for complete privacy, feature indulgent steam showers, expansive walk-in closets--one with a central storage island--and, in one bath, a full makeup vanity & a luxurious soaking tub offering the choice of tranquil privacy or sweeping ocean views. Additional features include an elevator, 3-5 car garage, whole house Control4 automation and audio, whole house water softening & filtration system, and an indoor/outdoor security system. Truly all-consuming, this is one of the most coveted locations along a world-renowned coastline.
