Property Description

This striking contemporary residence showcases the modern architectural vision of Jesse Bornstein, characterized by bold horizontal lines, expansive walls of glass, and warm wood detailing that blur the boundaries between indoors and out. Thoughtfully set amid mature, curated landscaping, the property is enveloped by towering palms, sculptural plantings, manicured hedges, and a serene koi pond that together provide exceptional privacy while preserving canyon views and filling the home with natural light. The result is a tranquil, resort-like setting that feels both secluded and deeply connected to nature. The 4-bedroom, 4 -bath main residence features dramatic ceiling heights of approximately 20 feet in the primary living areas, creating a sense of volume and openness throughout. Retractable glass walls dissolve the distinction between interior and exterior spaces, opening the living and dining areas directly to the central pool courtyard. This seamless indoor-outdoor flow makes the home ideal for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, centered around a sleek pool and spa framed by lush landscaping. A detached 1-bedroom, 1-bath guesthouse mirrors the home's architectural language and offers a private retreat with its own deck and direct access to the pool, perfect for guests, extended stays, or a flexible live-work environment. Nearby, a cedar-clad sauna adds a dedicated wellness component, further enhancing the tranquil, spa-like atmosphere of the outdoor spaces. The kitchen serves as both a design focal point and a functional centerpiece, featuring custom wood cabinetry, a generous center island, stone countertops, and Wolf appliances. Open shelving frames verdant garden views and invites abundant natural light, while the layout supports everything from casual meals to large-scale entertaining. Ideally situated for outdoor enthusiasts, the property offers close proximity to some of the area's most beloved hiking destinations, including the Sullivan Canyon Trailhead, Kenter Trailhead, Casa Viejo Trail, and Mandeville Canyon Park, allowing easy access to miles of scenic trails just moments from home. Throughout the residence, a refined palette of hardwood, polished concrete, stone, and plaster reflects the architect's commitment to timeless materials, craftsmanship, and clean modern lines. Together, the architecture, landscape, water features, and auxiliary structures are composed into a cohesive and peaceful canyon retreat, offering a rare blend of design integrity, privacy, and elevated California living.
