While standing on the edge of the property positioned high atop a magnificent coastal ridge, and looking down a deep lush canyon to a spectacularly golden sunset over a deep blue Pacific Ocean and a not-so-far-off Catalina Island, two things were certain to consider in the design of this home:  there needs to be great outdoor connectivity and the views must not be ignored!  With single-story living wrapping around a spacious central courtyard, two generous covered outdoor rooms accessible through wide glass doors and primary living spaces proportionately sized and strategically located at the rear of the home to take full advantage of breathtaking view opportunities, this home masterfully accomplishes these principal objectives.
