Presenting "Porch House" -- an architectural masterpiece custom built in 2013 and designed by Johnston Marklee FAIA. Located on one of the most desirable streets in the Riviera, the gated and private estate presents 180-degree mountain views from every single room. The pairing of concrete with floor-to-ceiling glass pocket sliding doors strikes the perfect balance between mass and volume. The entry level boasts 2-story ceilings in the living room, dining area, kitchen and den. The mezzanine is a collaboration of curves and straight lines punctuated by a balcony office, cozy library, and ensuite guest bedroom. The lower level is accessed by stairwells on each end of the house. The primary suite features a dual walk-in closet, indoor-outdoor bathroom, and patio all with ocean views. There are 2 additional ensuite guest bedrooms and a laundry room with storage space. The lush and serene grounds include a planted meadow with drought tolerant landscaping and lemon & lime trees. "Porch House" is truly a celebration of structural harmony and vertical indoor-outdoor living.
