In Venice's Golden Triangle, behind a lush walled courtyard, lies a reimagined storybook Spanish compound draped in cascading 100-year-old bougainvillea. Charming at first glance, yet far more expansive than expected - the property unfolds to reveal a substantial creative studio/detached guest retreat at the rear, complete with its own entrance, parking, and outdoor living. Step through the gate and the feeling is immediate"”inviting, tranquil, and private"”yet just moments from the energy of Abbott Kinney and beyond. Inside, the main residence opens in an unanticipated way: high barrel-vaulted ceilings, a dramatic 10-foot arched window, and hand-hewn doors spanning the entire length of the home. The effect - a bright, airy villa filled with ocean breezes, blurring the boundaries between inside and out. Thoughtfully reimagined by a renowned designer, the home preserves its authentic Spanish character while elevating every detail"”imported tile, hand-blown glass fixtures, rich espresso hardwood floors, oil-rubbed bronze finishes, a chef's kitchen, and spa-inspired baths with rain showers and a deep soaking tub. The 4,000+ sq ft lot unfolds into a series of distinct outdoor environments"”a romantic dining pavilion with billowing curtains, a zen courtyard with twinkle lights, fountain and firepit, and a versatile turf lawn for putting or croquet. As an added bonus, these west facing areas are also typically punctuated by cotton candy sunset skies. At the rear, the detached studio delivers a rare and compelling extension of the property"”ideal as a guest retreat, creative space, or entertainer's hub. With soaring two-story ceilings, a sleeping mezzanine, fireplace, kitchen, and bath, it offers both presence and flexibility rarely found at this scale. Set within one of Venice's quieter, highly walkable pockets with larger lots and easier parking"”just one block to Abbott Kinney and Washington's restaurant row, and minutes to the beach, marina, and Playa Vista. A home that captures you the moment you arrive-and lingers long after you leave.
