Description

A Modern Coastal Retreat in the Heart of Mar Vista’s Westdale Neighborhood. Thoughtfully reimagined with a warm, contemporary sensibility, this light-filled residence blends clean architectural design with effortless indoor-outdoor living in one of the Westside’s most sought-after enclaves. Set along a picturesque stretch of Federal Avenue, lined with mature magnolia trees and located within the coveted Mar Vista Elementary school zone, the home offers a rare balance of privacy, functionality, and elevated design, just moments from Venice, Santa Monica, and nearby Westside destinations. From the moment you enter, the home reveals a calming, design-forward atmosphere defined by soaring ceilings, skylights, and an intentional interplay of natural materials. Built with a focus on organic finishes, original white oak floors, custom built-ins, and soft textures create a cohesive aesthetic throughout. Expansive windows, transoms, and oversized sliding glass doors flood the interiors with natural light while creating a seamless connection to outdoor spaces. At the center of the home, the kitchen is both striking and functional, appointed with Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, handcrafted sinks, and a waterfall island designed for gathering. An induction range, matte black fixtures, and thoughtful storage complete the space, which flows effortlessly into the dining and living areas and out to a courtyard-style deck ideal for entertaining. Ipe and redwood decking, drought-tolerant landscaping, blue stone and natural pavers, and a mature orange tree create a serene setting. The home’s private spaces are equally considered, including a tranquil primary suite with a moonroof and spa-like ambiance. Bathrooms feature quartzite surfaces, Zia tile, and refined fixtures. A fully detached ADU offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or income potential. Built for comfort and efficiency, the property includes zoned HVAC, owned Enphase solar, a Franklin backup battery, heat pump technology, and a Title 24-compliant insulated structure. Additional features include a whole-home Sonos system, Cat 6 hardwired internet, reverse osmosis water filtration, and a Tesla charger. Every detail, from M-Tech hardware and Rejuvenation mirrors/fans to custom cabinetry and curated materials—has been carefully selected to create a home that is both functional and architecturally compelling. This is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey, design-driven residence in Westdale.
