Description
Designed by noted architect Alex Meconi, this architectural penthouse offers a level of privacy, scale, and presence rarely found this close to the beach. Occupying the top floor of a two-residence building with no common walls to the unit below, the home lives with the feel of a standalone residence. Tucked moments from the Venice Canal Historic District and less than a block from the ocean, it remains quietly removed while at the center of Venice's most desirable lifestyle. Reimagined in 2017, the approximately 1,960-square-foot home is defined by soaring volumes, abundant natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Dramatic double-height Arcadia glass walls flood the interiors throughout the day, while expansive front and rear terraces, along with a private rooftop retreat, create multiple spaces for entertaining or relaxing. The main living area is both refined and functional, anchored by a linear fireplace and enhanced by integrated sound, custom millwork, and a built-in bar that transitions effortlessly from day to evening. The kitchen pairs precision with understated luxury, featuring Sub-Zero refrigeration, Bosch appliances, quartz surfaces, and custom cabinetry designed for both form and function. The primary suite serves as a true private sanctuary, generous in scale, with layered seating areas, a custom walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath. Above, a secondary en-suite opens directly to the rooftop terrace, complete with BBQ, outdoor audio, and panoramic city-light views. Additional features include oak hardwood floors, Lutron lighting, whole-home water filtration, upgraded HVAC, copper plumbing, integrated security, and EV-ready three-car parking, an exceptional offering this close to the beach. Moments from Abbot Kinney, Main Street, and the coastline, the home offers immediate access to Venice's best dining, caffes, and boutiques while maintaining a rare sense of privacy and separation.
