Perched above the shimmering Pacific, this Playa del Rey home offers sweeping, unobstructed views from Malibu to Catalina and sunsets that paint the sky in soft, golden hues. Nearly 180 degrees of ocean unfold in front of you, with sailboats crossing the horizon on Wednesday evenings and a sunset that seems to put on a completely different show every night. Inside, everything turns toward the Pacific. Expansive glass sliding doors open the living room to the ocean-facing deck, filling the home with natural light and fresh coastal air. From the sofa to the dining table to the kitchen, the view is always there. The chef's kitchen is beautifully finished with custom cabinetry, sleek surfaces, and top-tier appliances, with the Pacific stretching out beyond it. Downstairs, a generous bonus room with a full bathroom, shower, and laundry offers flexibility as a home office, gym, yoga studio, creative space, or guest retreat. Out back, a large private yard is lush and peaceful, with an abundant lemon tree and plenty of room for dining outside, reading in the sun, or spending a slow afternoon at home. A separate, privately accessed pied--terre with its own address is located above the home and is currently occupied. Set in a peaceful Playa del Rey neighborhood, the home is just a short walk from the beach and nearby favorites including Playa Provisions and Bacari. A whole-house water filtration system adds another level of comfort. This is the kind of California living people dream about. Ocean air through open doors. Barefoot walks to the beach. Sailboats drifting across the horizon. Dinner outside. And sunsets so spectacular they look painted onto the sky. Living here feels like being on vacation, only you get to call it home.
