This Charles Ward-designed 1992 residence blocks from the beach evokes Mediterranean port towns gleaming in late-day sunshine, with natural concrete and stucco surfaces deliberately retaining their sandy natural color. The design of the striking geometric exterior provides a private sanctuary within. Almost all rooms open south via French doors to a sun-flooded courtyard with olive trees, alfresco kitchen and lush garden. Inside, dining room, kitchen, guest, laundry & bath surround a central square for living and entertaining. Upstairs, an expansive gathering room with skylights takes center stage. Large primary suite with office, bath and sleeping quarters is complemented by two bedrooms that share a full bath. After three decades+, the property is due for a sensitive renovation, or more thorough overhaul. Bring your imagination (and contractor/designer). Gated driveway parking.
