Set on a picturesque, tree-lined street in coveted Santa Monica Canyon, just a few blocks from the beach, this property offers a unique combination of scale, newer construction, and walkability that is seldom available in the Canyon lease market. Spanning nearly 4,000 square feet, the home blends modern luxury with timeless architecture. Guests are welcomed by a dramatic two-story foyer anchored by a sweeping, curved staircase. The main level opens to an expansive great room, integrating kitchen, dining, and living spaces, flowing seamlessly to the backyard and pool area via a wall of sliding glass doors that span the width of the space, ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The living room and dining rooms share soaring beamed, vaulted ceilings, with abundant natural light throughout. The chef's kitchen features an oversized culinary island, top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, natural quartzite countertops, and abundant storage. A separate den offers a more intimate gathering space and can also function as a fifth bedroom, with sliding doors and a closet already in place - while a sizable guest suite and elegant powder room finished in Carrara marble complete the main level. Upstairs, three generous bedroom suites include an expansive primary retreat with vaulted ceilings, a dedicated workspace, spa-like bath clad in stunning floor-to-ceiling Carrara marble tile and complete with dual soaking tub and oversized shower, and a large custom walk-in closet.The two upper guest suites offer full bathrooms, while a separate gym/office and laundry room complete the second level. The backyard is designed for year-round enjoyment, offering a private, resort-style setting with pool, spa, firepit, built-in gas BBQ, and alfresco dining under a pergola. Additional features include hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings across most rooms, central HVAC, a spacious walk-in storage closet, and a two-car garage with dual Level 2 EV chargers. Tenants enjoy the best of the Canyon lifestyle - a short stroll to Will Rogers State Beach and volleyball courts, Canyon Elementary, the Santa Monica Stairs, and beloved local destinations, including Rustic Coffee, Giorgio Baldi, Caff Delfini, and the Golden Bull. A rare opportunity to lease a newer, larger, and more design-forward home in one of Santa Monica's most desirable coastal neighborhoods.
