The creative joint effort by architect Melinda Gray, AIA 2016 & the owners produced a bright, playful, modern, exceedingly comfortable living environment. The house provides a familiar village feel when entering the gated grounds. The main floor includes the cook's kitchen, formal living/dining combination & family room all surrounded by floor-to-ceiling doors & windows. The second level provides two bright, evenly proportioned bedrooms & the spacious open loft-like main bedroom and bath suite. On the third level, the house provides a seductive rooftop deck, or potentially a fourth bedroom and spa-like environment. The exterior deck space, including the hot tub, is fully immersed by canyon views. Two separate studios currently used as office & yoga spaces are included. The thoughtful use of materials including white oak flooring & Silestone countertops + the placement of windows, internal and external light openings make the space thoughtful and memorable. The house is centrally located near State Beach, Canyon Square, Will Rogers & Rustic Canyon Park, the City of Santa Monica & the Palisades.
