Over six years to permit and over three years to build, 3011 Ocean Front Walk is a rare architectural undertaking realized on the Venice waterfront, where the Pacific and the horizon envelope life.

Retractable beachfront doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, and a 1,700-square-foot rooftop deck with jacuzzi frames unobstructed, emotional views of the water and pink/purple painted skies. Inside, the details are precise and unhurried: wide-plank wood floors throughout, custom cabinetry, visual comfort lighting, a hidden sound system, and a four-stop elevator with direct garage access which parks five cars. The kitchen centers around a waterfall marble island with a bevy of Dacor appliances, double-ovens, and a walk-in pantry with secondary refrigeration. The primary suite is adorned with book-matched marble, a steam shower, soaking tub, and automated room-darkening shades. Two fireplaces, whole-house water filtration, and a wet bar add to the long list of amenities. The first floor adds meaningful versatility: a separate ADU, a commercial unit, two additional en-suite bedrooms, and a powder room with a floating marble vanity. A property built with this patience and intention rarely reaches the market. On the sand, in the heart of all the Venice Beach action, it may never again. Google Map/Waze
