Embracing its mid-century design, this Mar Vista retreat delivers gorgeous SoCal style and indoor-outdoor living in an ultra-desirable locale. Inside the sun-splashed home, tall ceilings rise over hardwood floors and walls of windows, filling the open-plan interiors with lush views and glorious natural light. A quaint formal living room makes a warm welcome and opens to a large and inviting dining area. In the sunny open kitchen, white cabinetry and both granite and concrete counters surround stainless steel appliances and the island provides a perfect spot for cooking and gathering, while the adjacent breakfast nook is perfect for morning coffee while looking out to the lushly landscaped vistas. Plus, the neighboring pantry, powder room and service porch add wonderful convenience. The dramatic, sun-drenched family room is the heart of the home featuring extra-wide sliding glass doors, 14-foot-tall wood ceilings and skylights. The beamed ceilings carry through to the primary suite, where you’ll find more walls of glass opening to a relaxing deck and a large closet dressing area. The skylit ensuite bathroom boasts a double vanity and a walk-in shower. A separate wing of the home houses two ample secondary bedrooms and a remodeled full bathroom, plus laundry room. Outdoor lounging and entertaining are irresistible in the fully fenced garden sanctuary filled with tall hedges, palms and birds of paradise. The patio area featuring a built-in gas grill makes al fresco dinner parties a breeze. French doors open to the bonus room, perfect as a separate office space or gym. The exceptional landscape, gated front yard and stone pathways lend to the property’s enchanting presence in this A+ location close to the park, farmers market, Whole Foods and in the top-rated Mar Vista Elementary School District.
