    What's special

    In 1957 a successful musician who played with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole and The Tonight Show band decided to build a special home for his family. He began this creative process with two very wise decisions: first he purchased this gorgeous parcel in lower Lunada Bay with breathtaking ocean views; and second, he commissioned prominent Los Angeles architect Jack Chernoff to design a home tailored to this lovely site. The results are this classic two story traditional you see today. The current owners are only the second and they have diligently preserved the original character of this beloved home. The love of music still sings throughout the lyrical four bedroom and three bath design. The floor plan radiates from the welcoming formal entry to the step down living room with wood floors and an elegant fireplace. The dining room is formal as well. The heart of the house is down a few stairs to the family room with a wood beamed ceiling, its own fireplace, a very cool 50's bar and doors to the lush rear grounds. There is a large bedroom suite on the main level which enjoys its own bath and dressing room. Upstairs there are three more bedrooms with beautiful ocean views.The rear yard has a grassy lawn and a dining area for outdoor entertaining.
