Set on the bayfront along Roberts Bay, this architecturally significant residence designed by Carl Abbott blends sculptural form with experiential living. Located along El Dorado Drive in Venice, the home spans approximately 4,990 square feet with five bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 3 half baths organized into distinct public and private living zones for both entertaining and retreat. Expansive windows, decks, and open courts frame panoramic water views while maintaining privacy from neighboring properties. The private wing includes a multi-level primary suite featuring a glass floor overlooking the pool and a skylight visible from the ground level, creating a direct visual connection to the sky. Curved interior walls guide movement throughout the home, contrasting with the clean-lined exterior massing. A rooftop observation area offers elevated views of Roberts Bay and the Gulf, the night sky, and beautiful sunrises. Exterior security shutters function as architectural elements while providing heat control and storm protection. Two outdoor environments enhance livability: a west-facing private entrance courtyard and an open bay-side court integrated with the landscape. A deep scuba training pool adds a rare recreational feature, while the attached garage provides secure parking. Conveniently positioned approximately 0.5 miles from Venice Beach and 1.0 mile from Historic Downtown Venice, the property is also close to dining, shopping, cultural venues, parks, golf courses, and the Legacy Trail. This bayfront residence offers architectural distinction, privacy, and proximity to the best of coastal Venice living.
