Representing a rare intersection of architectural pedigree and coastal serenity, this 1960s mid-century modern residence was designed by the renowned Chris Abel. Known for his mastery of wood, glass, and light, Abel’s signature aesthetic is on full display here, offering a living experience defined by structural elegance and an effortless connection to the environment. Located within walking distance to the shoreline, the home is close enough to the Pacific to enjoy the rhythmic sound of waves at night, yet elevated enough to command a 240° panorama of city lights and the Shorecliffs fairways. The residence is a study in organic modernism, extensively updated in 2023 to harmonize heritage design with contemporary high-end finishes.
