Residence for Harold and Martha Henbest, 1966. The architect responsible for arguably two of the most iconic designs of the Case Study House Program works here on a flat, ocean-view lot in Rancho Palos Verdes. As with most of Koenigs designs, the first visual is one of understatement at the street. But past the walled and gated entry, one steps into a highly dramatic and purposefully practical home for Southern California living. A unique, folded-plate roof dramatizes the interiors which, flanked by opposing glass walls, are open and filled with natural light. And, as if anticipating todays lifestyle back in 1966, the original design includes a formal living room, separate dining area and kitchen with adjoining family room; each placed with a strong orientation to the outdoor spaces. Mature Japanese-influenced gardens occupy the front grounds, and the architecture, presented in virtually unaltered condition, appears to borrow from that spirit of true calm, high restraint and absolute preciseness. 4 Bedrooms 2.5 Bathrooms Terrazzo Flooring Radiant Heating Mature, Japanese Gardens Family Room Two-Car Garage Ocean Views

Spectacular modern estate with stunning view high above the Pacific Ocean. Architect Marshall Lewis wraps large open spaces in redwood and glass to create a home with privacy, serenity, elegance and livability. The elevated glass walled rotunda commands a sweeping view of Ocean, Catalina Island, and coastline from sunrise in the East, to sunset in the West. The home borders a huge Nature Preserve overlooking the coastline. The secluded tree lined entry drive opens into an expansive motor court with center pond. The strong modern architecture provides a dramatic counterpart to the feeling of nature provided by the private tree filled lot and stunning views. The interior appointments are exquisite and include a European style Kitchen. The outdoor entertainment area includes pool, spa, and terrace kitchen. The huge 1375 sq ft garage has two story volume with skylights, a indoor half court basketball facility, and exercise alcove. An elevator provides easy access to the garage and living areas.

THE STRAND
by PAMELA CORANTE-HANSEN
LIFE
FADE in waves crashing on a tawny beach as a flock of snowy white seagulls floats above the shoreline. On a cement path that hugs the sand, a toned jogger breezes past a solitary surfer who stares broodingly out to sea. Meanwhile, a celebrity athlete ambles by unnoticed, his small children in tow. The backdrop: a long string of modern beachside mansions standing cheek-to-jowl with 1920s bungalows. All share an unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean and some of Southern Californias finest beaches. This is not a new Hollywood screenplay; its just another Saturday morning on The Strand. Refreshingly informal, architecturally eclectic, and remarkably unpretentious, The Strands casual allure captivates executives, celebrities and anyone who values a lifestyle that combines quiet elegance with the natural beauty of the ocean. Life on The Strand is a perpetual getaway from the stresses of living in a county of 10 million. Find your next big idea, your ultimate home, or a quiet moment to watch a Technicolor sunset on the South Bays own version of the California dream.

Offered at $18,899,000
ELEVATE YOUR PERSPECTIVE Theres more to life at 2909 The Strandmuch, much more. With three above-ground floors (versus typical two) each boasting almost 50 feet of expansive frontage, (instead of the typical 24) plus a full size roof deck youll enjoy 300% more frontage than the average Strand home in Hermosa Beach.

Make yourself, your family and your guests at home with 7 luxurious bedrooms, 7 fully appointed baths, and 3 half baths including a separate housekeepers quarters. Guest will enjoy having their own private guest wing each bedroom with a walk-in closet, and each bathroom with a Whirlpool tub.
MOVIE NIGHT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME Grab the popcorn and head downstairs for a private screening of the latest blockbuster or the big game. There youll find an enormous family room that doubles as a home theater, complete with beach-themed hand-painted window shades that automatically lower for optimal viewing. Belly up to the bamboo-themed full bar for a cocktail. Or crack open a vintage stored in your 500-bottle capacity wine locker. You may never buy another movie ticket again.
CELEBRATE UNDER THE STARS Take the party higher and bigger on your rooftop deck, the largest on The Strand. Perfect for a quiet afternoon of sun-basking and spa-soaking, your roof deck can also accommodate up to 110 guest mingling among the mature-growth plantings and under the stars. Equipped with ample storage, refrigerator, sink, grill, plenty of chairs, chaise lounges and tables, as well as built-in teak benches and platforms, your roof deck is the ultimate setting for the ultimate gathering.
THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAILS Can a home be a work of art? It can if its 2909 The Strand. Youll notice the incredible attention to detail and artisanship the instant you step through the gated courtyard and into a beautifully landscaped setting. From the honed marble floors and 6-foot hand-crafted chandelier in the entrance, to the Venetian plaster and imported Japanese rice paper on the walls, to the staircase rails resembling artistically woven twigs, to the original artwork displayed throughout, you immediately know youve arrived someplace very special. And very rare.
