Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Welcome to this sophisticated architectural hideaway by Steven Shortridge, AIA, in iconic Venice Beach. Located on Milwood, a beautiful, palm-tree-lined street, arguably the best street in Venice, known for showcasing many of the most prestigious architectural homes in the area. 911 Milwood offers an exceptional indoor/outdoor lifestyle for the modern entertainer with an eye on thoughtful design and careful craftsmanship and has produced an impeccably chic living environment that inspires all senses. Natural wood and stone combine to create an idyllic environment of comfort and privacy amidst plentiful pops of lush greenery. Polished concrete floors flow throughout the main level, cooling the space on warmer summer days. The living room is highlighted by a large, sleek fireplace flanked by floor-to-ceiling panels of glass. The adjacent kitchen is a culinary dream, with waterfall center island, high-grade appliances including Wolf and Sub-Zero, and gorgeous backsplash. The formal dining room opens to a front lounging deck with fire pit, perfect for casual conversation with guests behind privacy hedges. The floor pan is very versatile and caters to a family or someone who likes to host guests, with a private skybridge that separates the owner's wing from the secondary upstairs bedrooms. The primary suite includes built-ins for optimizing storage, a generous walk-in closet, and a bathroom with floating dual-sink vanity, pedestal soaking tub, and separate subway-tile shower with skylight. Other bedrooms feature large picture windows looking out to treetop views and the outdoor paradise that awaits below. There is also an office, rooftop deck with double fire pits, and incredible outdoor dining room. An impressive wood-paneled bar features a built-in barbecue for preparing meals al-fresco. A lush garden wall is the backdrop for intimate parties and gatherings, and a sparkling pool completes this courtyard-like retreat. This prime location is just moments to the very best of the Westside including beaches, trendy shopping, some of the city's best dining and nightlife, the marina, the new NeueHouse, Silicon Beach, Santa Monica, LAX, and more.
