Presenting El Canto Del Agua, a striking feat of modern elegance and indisputable architectural importance, positioned in one of the most enduringly esteemed and iconic locales in the world. Brilliantly conceived and expertly crafted, this pièce de résistance is a masterful blend of the choicest materials, combined to form a serene refuge in harmony with its natural California environment. Geometric shape peers from behind lush greenery as oversize glass panels step and repeat along the home's organic shiplap accents, its commanding facade concealing the remarkable showplace that awaits. Inside, a double-height foyer gives way to a surprisingly voluminous great room offering novelty at every corner as walls of windows collapse to reveal an extraordinary outdoor paradise. A marvelous stone-slab fireplace emerges against vivid blue skies and flourishing greenery. The exquisite gourmand's kitchen is appointed with sleek lines, smooth surfaces, Italian hand-made cabinetry, chef's preparation galley, and two oversize islands, one of which is topped by live-edge red wood imported from the tropical rainforests of Brazil. Among many state-of-the-art appliances are two large-scale professional hoods, 48-inch professional gas cooktop with professional induction stove, two in-wall double ovens, and professional refrigerator and freezer columns with full stainless-steel interior. Numerous entertaining spaces afford a variety of optimal locations for large parties and intimate gatherings. The grand family room is an entertainer's dream, with its large bar constructed of purple heart wood aside a floor-to-ceiling glass wine cellar that holds more than 1,000 bottles. Nearby, the home cinema represents an astonishing maximization of space and volume, with full-depth stadium seating for up to twenty guests to recline and stretch, 200-inch ultra-bright screen, and professional-grade projector. Upstairs, the grand 2,700-square-foot primary suite is an expansive sanctuary, with double oversize closets, sitting room, office, patio, and centerpiece fireplace. The en-suite spa-inspired bathroom features double rainwater showers, soaking tub, and two water closets. Hand-fashioned hardware and fixtures abound throughout the residence, each element contributing to its museum-quality atmosphere. Uninterrupted lines of vision from every room converge, intimately connecting the indoors to the exterior courtyard as a paramount focal point. A fitness and wellness gym includes a massive Roman-style bath and rejuvenation center with jetted tub and various steam shower heads, transitioning seamlessly to the outdoor spaces. The stunning backyard is centered by a terraced pool with waterfalls, stepping stones, and conversation fire pit that is as much a work of art as it is a space for leisure and relaxation. Above it all, a towering heirloom cactus has been meticulously preserved and protected during the construction process, serving asa celebration of life itself and all that is beautiful in the world. Additionally, a completely independent ADU with its own address comprises two bedrooms, three bathrooms, and full kitchen spanning 1,300 square feet.
