Designed by world-renowned Field Architecture, the home’s inspiration was the monarch butterfly, known for its annual migrations along the coastal corridors. Inside and out, roofs and ceilings follow the graceful lines of the wings, while to-the-floor glass on both levels invites the outdoors in from every vantage point. Floors are beautifully cast in Brazilian cherry, lighting is perfectly placed, and floating staircases are signatures leading to distinctly separate wings.
The grounds are equally captivating with native plantings, a tucked-away spa, fountain art, and paths all sheltered by an ocean-view berm from which to savor the views.
