decided to make the casual, eclectic beach community his new home.
He selected this particular home for the spacious feel and flow of the
house, all the windows and glass doors, and also for the separate garage
building, which he used as a music studio.
"Originally from Atlanta, Ty now has decided to make the move back
East again after nearly 20 years in Los Angeles," he adds. "Currently
working on several shows with HGTV, Ty realized most of his time
is spent on the East Coast and that he was spending less and less time
in L.A."
Tucked away at 824 Crestmoore Place—on a one-way street of
Venice Boulevard, near the beach, Venice Boardwalk, picturesque
Venice Canals and Abbot Kinney's hip hot spots—the original 1927
dwelling was updated this year and is highlighted by special touches
throughout, including bamboo flooring, a trio of baths adorned in
vintage-inspired ceramic tile, a master bath sporting a standalone
shower and an antique cast-iron freestanding tub, kitchen with concrete
countertops and wraparound, porcelain-tiled porch.
At more than 2,000-plus square feet, the two-level abode features
an attractive entry foyer that opens to a sizable living room boasting
a decorative fireplace, along with a sunken family room with soaring
ceilings and large windows overlooking a newly landscaped, private
backyard with a fish pond. Also on this level is the kitchen, laundry
room, and bedroom with direct backyard access and an adjacent full
bath with walk in shower.
e upper level, meanwhile, holds the master retreat and a guest
bedroom, both outfitted with vaulted ceilings, walk-in closets, en-suite
baths and a wealth of windows perfect for taking in the soothing ocean
breeze. And yet other highlights include the aforementioned separate
garage, complete with windows matching the original swing-out case-
ments, that can double not only as a studio, but also an office, gym or
guest house.
"From the street, the house appears to be a nice, well-kept beach
bungalow," says listing agent Patrice Meepos of Compass. "Upon enter-
ing, however, the scope of the room sizes reveals so much more. Adored
and restored by Ty Pennington, this home is all about comfort, style
and casual modern interior design."
