1180 FERNWOOD PACIFIC Drive

Sleek Tropical 1920's Bungalow with Income-Producing Potential. Super-clean lines define this bright, two-story with two guest studios integrated into a tropically inspired landscape on a terraced hillside. Vintage charm is light and airy with white wood-beamed vaulted ceilings, a bohemian hand-painted staircase,… sculpted corner fireplace, and handsome bamboo floors. Skylights elevate a spacious kitchen updated with stainless appliances and granite counters. An adjoining room serves as a butler's pantry with wine cooler, or a den or nursery. Upstairs a loft bed evokes the efficiency and romance of a ship captain's quarters, including custom cabinetry, inspiring canyon view, and a private deck. New tile, river rock, and glass shower doors gleam under the bathroom skylight. Floor to ceiling windows seem to bring the Santa Monica Mountains into the living room, where sliding glass doors open onto a sweeping canyon view and an entertainment-mecca of a deck. The crisp style extends to two additional smartly designed studios. One is downstairs of the main house, accessed via a separate entrance, with a kitchenette and freshly remodeled bathroom, including vessel sink. Sliding glass doors open to a vast covered patio with the cool feel of an island lanai, and view of a lush garden with fruit-laden trees. Across a lawn and perched on its own terrace is the second, stand-alone bungalow-studio, with wrap-around deck, ceiling fan, abundant natural light through both a French and sliding doors, compact yet upscale bathroom, and a slick kitchenette with built-in dining counter from which to savor the vista. The trio of dwellings, as well as a spiffy laundry room and outdoor clawfoot bathtub, are connected by a striking series of paths, terraces, stairways, planters and lounging areas. A gated privacy fence bordering scenic Fernwood Pacific Drive secures one dedicated parking space, and harbors this peaceful getaway to the Topanga Canyon good life renowned for preferred climate, proximity to both beach and city, and school district excellence.
