1501 Via Montemar, Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274

Standing atop a coastal bluff amid the resplendent beauty of the sun-soaked Palos Verdes Coastline, this private Spanish Colonial masterpiece is a rare offering. Originally built in 1925, then substantially expanded and remodeled in 2006, master craftsmanship and the highest quality materials from two eras are seamlessly combined. The generously proportioned spaces are richly detailed in wood, imported tiles, and stone throughout, including the unique wet bar and gourmet kitchen. Entertaining is easy with formal dining and family rooms flowing out through French doors to a wide Saltillo tile patio with outdoor fireplace and unobstructed ocean views of the Queen’s Necklace and Bluff Cove. Mature fruit trees, lawn and an incredible hillside waterfall add to the lush landscaping and many outdoor spaces for relaxing on this oversize lot. The master retreat is romantic and dramatic, with coffered ceiling, custom walk-in closet, two balconies and gorgeous ocean views. Past a private koi pond with waterfall, the fourth bedroom has its own entrance, fireplace and sensational ocean view for the ultimate home office. Home was updated with automated smart home system and is wired for surround sound, outdoor speakers and Cat5 wiring throughout, and electric car charging station in the garage. There are two partially subterranean basements, could be used as workout room or mancave. This home is truly a timeless treasure.
