The floorplan is designed for convenience with the main common rooms, master suite and garage all on the entry level, with unobstructed panoramic ocean and city views.

The floorplan is designed for convenience with the main common rooms, master suite and garage all on the entry level, with unobstructed panoramic ocean and city views. Additional bedroom suites and entertaining rooms are below, leading to an elegant pool and terraced gardens. Priced less than what you'd pay for a nearby old historic home, which would then cost more to re-invent to your needs (if even possible) vs. new construction. Here's a rare chance to build a plan-ready beautiful estate!
