Experience coastal luxury in this meticulously upgraded Swiss Craftsman compound, now available for sale in the prestigious Point Fermin neighborhood. Situated on a private 6101-square-foot lot just blocks from the Pacific, this 2005 custom-built estate offers a rare blend of elegance and versatility. The main residence features an open-concept floor plan highlighted by maple hardwood flooring, a spacious living room with a gas fireplace, and a formal dining area. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s centerpiece, boasting custom soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, a bespoke island, and premium stainless-steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen, a cozy great room flows seamlessly through a charming Dutch door to the backyard. The upper-level houses three spacious bedrooms, each equipped with walk-in closets. The expansive primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, featuring a private balcony, a button-activated fireplace, and an oversized custom walk-in closet. The spa-like master bath includes a classic clawfoot tub, a walk-in shower, and a chandelier. For added convenience, a dedicated laundry room with a washbasin is located on the bedroom level. Beyond the main house, the property includes a detached two-story structure where both units are permitted. The bottom unit would be perfect for an in-law suite, a home office, gym, or guest quarters. The upper level offers a large 500 Sq ft open studio with a half bath and is currently rented out for $1850 a month. The vacant lower level features in-law quarters with a 3/4 bath and secondary laundry hookups. The grounds are designed for entertaining and privacy, featuring high ivy-covered walls, built-in outdoor seating, and a professional-grade gas BBQ. Parking is abundant with a deep driveway for three vehicles, plus a detached oversized two-car garage with alley access and additional space for a boat or RV. Enjoy the best of San Pedro living with immediate proximity to Cabrillo Beach, the Korean Friendship Bell, and the scenic trails of the Wildlife Nature Preserve. This is in a prime location. You will fall in love with this house and all that it has to offer.
