The drive from Sunset to 4021 Mandeville
is therapeutic," says agent Nikki Magliarditi.
"As soon as you make the turn, the curves
of Mandeville Canyon rock you into a calm
that takes away all of the day's stress. Once
you step into the front door, this feeling only
intensifies." With an abundance of natural
light inside and mature garden outside,
the property, which sits on a lot of over
30,000 square feet, immediately convinced
the homeowner—an interior designer—
to transform it into an indoor-outdoor
sanctuary.
"Before making any improvements, we
lived in the house for several months to
understand its character," the homeowner
confesses. "Prior to us, only one family had
lived in the house since it was designed and
constructed—over 40 years! We wanted
to celebrate the architecture while better
integrating the living experience with the
structure's surroundings." Inside, Benjamin
Moore Simply White walls combine with
warm leathers, honey-toned white oak
hardwood floors, exposed beams and natural
textiles in California-cool style. Occasional
black accents and contemporary art with
minimal splashes of color create contrast
while some Moroccan carpets and Balinese
lamps add exotic touches throughout. The
living room has soaring 20-foot-high ceilings,
a floor-to-ceiling rustic log wall and an open
floor plan. The kitchen offers access to the
redwood decking, which extends to the
grassy yard, pool and spa, and terraced
garden. "We maintained over 40 fruiting
plants, added turf leading up to the pool,
irrigated vegetable cabinets, planted native
plants and wildflowers, and added hiking
trails to over half an acre of fenced hillside,"
the homeowner says.
All four bedrooms open to outdoor
spaces and provide canyon views, includ-
ing the large master suite. In addition to
the garage with ample space for two cars
and storage, the 800-square-foot lower lev-
el can be used as an in-home studio, gym
or art studio.
Currently on the market for $3,695,000,
"it is the perfect blend of privacy and
seclusion, the epitome of California life-
style," according to agent Cindy Ambuehl.
