Description
Featured in Dwell and numerous other publications, the spectacular and newly transformed estate at 400 Ashton sits squarely above storied Victoria Beach with sweeping ocean and city views. Perhaps one of the most unique properties available today along this rarified patch of coastline, 400 Ashton sits on one of the larger ocean-close parcels available this close to the sand. Entering the gated drive reveals mature, terraced gardens and a marvelous towering home. Once the home of a renowned local artist, the grounds and the home itself have been rejuvenated and meticulously reinvented by the current owners. The panoramic Pacific Ocean and coastline views are stunning, and the house is like no other – carefully preserving the architectural nods to its history, the owners have updated the home into a coastal masterpiece. The main level is wrapped with glass and expansive ocean view decks, and is finished magnificently… hitting the right mix of organic design and luxury appointments. A main level bedroom opens to the rear gardens, including raised planter boxes and, of course, a producing chicken coop. With a nod to the home’s history, elements of the old home have been repurposed inside and out. The vast ocean views are not lost on the lower bedroom level. From the private primary suite, complete with wet room and copper soaking tub, to the guest suites, media area and wrap-around covered decks, the lower level of the home delivers the same ‘wow’ factor as the main level. A stately rustic outdoor fireplace and living room invites conversation, while the terrace above holds a substantial outdoor kitchen. The gardens beckon exploration – view terraces and quiet spots abound, a fruit tree grove and installations by local artists share the spaces in a unique alchemy. Given the ample land, there are potential possibilities of adding an accessory dwelling unit without much compromise to the gardens. But, it is once you get to the home itself where the full magic is revealed. Though the home feels worlds apart from any neighbors, it is just three blocks from the sand. The estate has abundant parking behind the gate and off-street outside the gate. 400 Ashton Drive is a property to be savored and explored, a property that defies duplication in coastal real estate.
