1128 Palos Verdes Dr Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274

Some homes are memorable for their architecture, while others stay with you for the view. At this Tuscan-inspired Palos Verdes Estates residence, the two come together. Overlooking the coastline and the Queen's Necklace, the home offers a front-row seat to ocean sunsets and the twinkling lights that follow. Built in 2008 as an interior designer's own home, the main residence balances grand spaces with places to retreat. Host dinner in the formal dining room, gather around one of two islands in the kitchen, or linger beneath the great room's vaulted, wood-beamed ceiling. Multiple balconies bring the ocean, cove, whitewater, and city views into everyday life. The layout makes room for different rhythms: two generous suites for privacy, flexible studies for work or creative pursuits, and an elevator connecting all three levels. For guests who appreciate their own space, separate quarters above one of the garages offer approximately 832 square feet with two bedrooms, a bath, living area, and kitchenette. Two garages provide parking for four cars and additional storage. Set in Malaga Cove, the home also offers access to the award-winning Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District. Come for the coastal setting; stay for the many ways to make it your own.
