2495 RIVIERA DR. - IRVINE COVE - LAGUNA BEACH

This is one of only five homes that opens onto the sand in Irvine Cove; the most desirable private oceanfront community in Southern California. This new residence perfectly embodies the promise of such an extraordinary parcel. Years in design and construction, this sublime abode exudes the ambiance of a private resort. The warmth of the surroundings is reflected in the colors and materials selected for the home, its finishes and fittings. Seamless transitions between interiors and exteriors evidence that the transparent design is at one with its setting. Waves on the shore can be seen from every major room, reinforcing the allure of the oceanfront location. The defining elements of contemporary California design - walls of glass, generously scaled rooms, a central courtyard, comfortable informal spaces, indoor/outdoor living and soothing water elements - have been successfully incorporated into the design.
