Listed by Christopher Cortazzo of Compass
Encompassing approximately 17,700 square feet, with an additional subterranean garage of roughly 9,500 square feet, the residence offers a volume and architectural envelope seldom found along the California coastline. Constructed prior to today's far more restrictive coastal regulations and height limitations, the estate possesses a level of scale, presence, and spatial grandeur that would be extraordinarily difficult, if not impossible, to duplicate today. Ownership includes coveted Riviera III Beach Key access, providing entry to one of Point Dume's most sought-after stretches of coastline. Grand yet inviting, the interiors are defined by soaring ceilings, expansive entertaining spaces, and walls of glass that frame sweeping ocean vistas from nearly every principal room. The home's remarkable proportions create an exceptional sense of openness while providing a rare opportunity for a future owner to reimagine, refine, or transform the residence according to their own vision. The scale and infrastructure already in place offer a foundation capable of accommodating virtually any design direction or lifestyle concept. Outside, a series of expansive terraces unfold toward the Pacific, creating an unparalleled setting for entertaining and everyday living alike. A resort-caliber pool and spa overlook the ocean, while multiple gathering areas, mature landscaping, and curated outdoor environments take full advantage of the property's commanding blufftop setting. A defining architectural feature of the estate is its dramatic oceanfront pavilion. Positioned at the edge of the property and framed by classical columns against an endless horizon, it serves as both a striking visual landmark and an unforgettable venue for entertaining above the water. Beyond its beauty, what distinguishes this offering is its rarity. Opportunities to acquire an oceanfront estate of this scale, with this degree of privacy, land, volume, and existing entitlements, have become increasingly scarce. More than a residence, it is a legacy property, one whose size, stature, Riviera III Beach Key access, and relationship to the coastline represent an asset unlikely to be replicated for generations to come.
