Step out onto the expansive 1,500-square-foot entertainment deck, offering breathtaking ocean views, or retreat to the private backyard oasis featuring a stunning swimming pool and relaxing hot tub. This distinguished residence boasts five bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including dual master suites, a wine bar, and multiple living areas adorned with exquisite finishes, high-end features, and custom details. Every inch of this nearly 4,000-square-foot property was meticulously remodeled in 2018 by the Danish architect Jesper Pedersen, founder of the renowned DNA Design Group, resulting in a modern masterpiece with a sophisticated design and a thoughtfully designed floor plan. Situated just two blocks from the ocean in the prestigious Sunset Cliffs neighborhood, this dream luxury home offers the ultimate indoor/outdoor living experience. Its clever layout is perfectly suited for everyday living, making it not just a fantastic entertainer's haven but also an ideal family retreat. Nestled on a tranquil street, this serene residence offers a private sanctuary tucked away from the tourist hotspots that entice global travelers. From the grand 5-foot-wide custom front door to the European-inspired custom kitchen, from the unique wine display and bar to the custom cabinetry in the laundry room (complete with a convenient dumbwaiter from the garage to the first floor), no detail has been overlooked.
