Pebble Beach
This Spanish Colonial residence sits on the famous Seventeen Mile Drive in Pebble Beach. The main living areas face towards the Pacific Ocean and the ninth hole of the Pebble Beach Golf Links. This 5,000-square-foot residence is laid out around specimen oak trees that frame the dramatic views. The outdoor living areas include a sunny morning terrace, a protected courtyard, a covered loggia off the library, and a dramatic master bedroom terrace.
The exterior materials of this home consist of handmade terra cotta roof tiles, steel doors and windows, hand-forged iron, and custom light fixtures. Traditional colors as well as a variety of chimney caps and eave details evoke the area homes from the 1920’s.
