A historical masterpiece, frozen in time, reminiscent of the Amalfi Coast—much can be said of this wondrous architectural gem situated along the coast in Pacific Palisades, California. Enjoying unobstructed, 180-degree ocean and shoreline views, this more than half-acre estate is filled with old-world inspiration and architecturally inspiring moments.
Castillo del Mar was designed and constructed in the Italianate style by renowned architect Nathaniel Coleman in 1927. Comprised of six parcels, the estate now encompasses a two-bedroom main house, attached two-bedroom guest house, attached one-bedroom guest room and a detached studio.
The main living area boasts 25-foot ceilings and solid redwood bow and truss construction, while extraordinary features include solid oak peg and groove floors, magnificent leaded/stained glass windows, hand-carved wooden hardwood doors, original art deco tiles and handcrafted millwork. The former estate of Hollywood director Roland West, Castillo del Mar is nestled into the hillside with dynamic views that include the verdant surrounding peaks, swaying palms and sandy, white-water beaches below.
