16693 CHARMEL Lane, Pacific Palisades CA

Perched above the Pacific Ocean in the coveted Pacific Palisades with views of the Queen's Necklace, this sublime single-story, 6-bedroom 1965 mid-century modern home, redesigned by renowned architect John Bertram (known for his thoughtful and inspired restoration of 5 homes by modernist master Richard Neutra), boasts an abundance of natural light, sliding walls of glass, a strong indoors - outdoors connection, and a flexible and open floor plan. The gourmet kitchen (with its center island, custom cabinets and pro appliances) opens to the family room. Terrazzo floors, mosaic glass tiles, and CaesarStone countertops are but some of the designer finishes. Newer solar-heated pool and spa. Two sizable grassy areas and a gated, private drive. Within the highly sought-after Marquez Charter Elementary, Paul Revere Charter Middle and Palisades Charter High School districts. Updated for today, yet appealing to those who yearn for a connection to yesteryear. This is functional art at its best.
