A sensationally designed Spanish Colonial style home transformed by Chris Barrett Design, is located steps from the sands of Santa Monica Beach, California. The architectural design of this home by Chris Appleton Architects responds to its local environment, yet draws its essence from a rich history of Mediterranean design. The outdoor spaces are vivacious and playful, with a cozy fireplace, plenty of lounging areas and a sparkling swimming pool. Inside this bright and airy beach pad, the furnishings and finishes are both rich and comfortable, welcoming both the homeowner and guests to relax and enjoy all the wonderful amenities. The neutral wall color featured throughout the interiors is a custom integral color plaster. Wood beams on the ceiling in the living room, kitchen and master bedroom further demonstrates the Mediterrean influences showcased in this lovely property.

What We Love: The arched French doors in the living room that connects to a gorgeous outdoor space. Cozy furnishings invite you to real and enjoy the home…and that window seat in the living room looks like a great space to read a book!
