The architecturally significant Benedict Beach House was custom designed in 1967 by James A. Stevens. This dreamy Triplex offers the rare and highly desirable combination of Mid-Century Modern aesthetics and an iconic beach front location. The extraordinary design provides an ever changing quality of light and shadow play, as well as expansive views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island and the coastline. The 3 bedroom, 5 bath primary residence's soaring floor to ceiling glass doors and clean lines, are shown off perfectly by the beautiful masonry and slate floors. Sunset reflections on the glass and mirrored surfaces are magical. To watch the surfers and listen to the waves from the very tall rooftop deck with 360 degree views is devine. Two cozy crash pads at the ground level also face the beach front and can be used when guests come to play or as income units. Ready to be restored, this is the one you have been hoping for.
