About 1736 Michael Lane
Surrounded by the Santa Monica Mountains in Pacific Palisades' Highlands neighborhood, this light-filled residence embraces the California lifestyle with sweeping mountain views, seamless indoor-outdoor living, and a location just minutes from the beach and Palisades Village. Vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an airy atmosphere throughout the home, while walls of sliding glass doors across the rear open the living spaces to the outdoors. Centered around a stone fireplace, the spacious living room offers a welcoming place to gather or unwind. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the open-concept great room connects the family room, dining area, and kitchen into one cohesive space. Custom built-ins add warmth to the family room, while a dry bar enhances the dining area for effortless hosting. The kitchen combines clean, timeless finishes with thoughtful functionality, featuring seamless stone countertops and backsplash, a seated peninsula, walk-in pantry, and premium appliances, including a Thermador double-oven range. A dedicated executive office with custom built-in cabinetry provides a quiet workspace on the main level, complemented by a full bathroom and a spacious laundry room with ample storage. Upstairs, a media room with a tiered seating platform offers a comfortable space for movie nights and casual gatherings. Four bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged on this level, including a generously scaled primary suite where vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows frame beautiful mountain views. A custom walk-in closet and spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities, a glass-enclosed tile shower, and a separate soaking tub complete the private retreat. Two distinct outdoor living spaces enveloped in mature privacy hedging extend the home's livability. At the front, an open-air patio and turf lawn create a peaceful place to relax, while the backyard features a pergola-covered paver patio for al fresco dining, a fire pit, and a second turf lawn for recreation and entertaining. Additional amenities include smart thermostats, dual HVAC systems, and an attached two-car garage that is pre-wired for EV charging. Located in one of Pacific Palisades' most desirable neighborhoods, this Highlands home places nature, recreation, and the coast within easy reach, offering a lifestyle defined by mountain views, outdoor adventure, and everyday convenience.
