This issue we take you over to Palos Verdes Estates just down the street from Trump National L.A. This gated private view estate on more than an acre over looking the Pacific Ocean in Palos Verdes Estates is above and beyond your average off season home allowing you to escape the desert heat. It is a beautiful estate that will surely take your breath away.
Situated above the Pacific, this unique property features fantastic views of the ocean, coves, coastline and spans from Malibu to downtown Los Angeles. When Ed Giddings, the architect, incorporated both rustic and natural elements with all the modern conveniences he probably never imagined that someday Golf & Lifestyle would feature it in On The Market.
Inside this palatial estate there are four bedroom suites in the main house plus two detached offices (just in case you actually have to work!). Having a guest spend the weekend? Send them over to the detached guest room and bath. Note: Expect your company to extend their stay, but don't say we didn't warn you!
The lower level includes a 5,000 plus bottle wine cellar perfect for a 1973 Château Montelena Chardonnay. There are also media, exercise and family/game rooms all perfect for a rainy day.
In case you are looking for love, look no further than the North/South tennis court. When designing the ultimate court, Mr. Giddings thought of everything. Your opponent can’t use the excuse that the sun was in their eyes while playing on this perfectly placed court. After a quick match, stroll over to the private enclosed pool with spectacular views of Catalina Island.
The numerous patios and decks allow for heart melting views and relaxed lounging with friends or family. A covered portico gives this Mediterranean styled villa a perfect area for entertaining large parties or having intimate gatherings. Grab a novel and submerse yourself in it while enjoying the privacy.
Let's not forget the master suite. The private separate master suite with panoramic views features two baths, walk in closets the size of Pebble Beach greens, a fireplace and sitting areas, both indoors and out in case you have trouble deciding.
This can become your new summer dream home for the cool price of $10,500,000. Need to finance? No problem – with $2,000,000 down you can expect a payment of roughly $71,000 a month. In case you were wondering what else you could spend $71,000 a month on, we have an idea. Call Pebble Beach Resorts and book a foursome every day for a month. Make sure you include caddies and a suite at the hotel for each of you.
Or make Palos Verdes your reality.
This home is located at 978 PASEO LA CRESTA, Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274. For more information visit redfin.com.
