Architecture Wednesday: Topanga Canyon Spanish Contemporary

Here we are, back in Topanga Canyon again, though this one if nothing like last weeks’ 1970s rustic vibes. This sleek Spanish style oasis is tranquil and peaceful and muted and calm and contemporary.

This Spanish-inspired residence blends seamlessly with the lush natural landscape and the two bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom home has been fully remodeled. It now features hand troweled lime plaster in all living spaces and wide white oak plank floors throughout.

The bright herringbone floored sunken living room opens up to a deck over the attached garage and has sweeping canyon views and a double-sided fireplace that is also open to the kitchen. On that deck you have an outdoor dining area, lounge, built in BBQ and outdoor fireplace. Inside, just off the living room is the dining area and the kitchen featuring limestone floors, travertine countertops, custom plaster, reclaimed oak beam shelving, hand patina'd brass hardware, and a nickel sink faucet & pot filler.

There are two spacious primary ensuite bedrooms, the first with an adjoining office/sitting room and a designer bathroom with travertine floors and counters, and vintage beam accents.  The second primary suite has a built-in reading nook and bathroom with stone floors and soaking tub.

The backyard is sited under a mature palm tree, with a saltwater pool, spa and tons of space for lounging and dining.

It’s peaceful and calm and luxurious …
