1468 Palisades Dr, Pacific Palisades, CA 90272

Description

Sweeping Santa Ynez Canyon views and streaming sunlight fill this Palisades Highlands townhome. Southwest-facing windows and a central skylight draw the sun across refinished wood floors; mornings arrive softly, and by afternoon the rooms fill with a warm, golden glow. Approximately 2,002 square feet with two en-suite bedrooms and 2.5 baths, it offers the proportions of a house with lock-and-leave ease. The generous living room is made for unwinding: vaulted wood-beam ceilings soar overhead, a stacked-stone fireplace rises to meet them, and the canyon fills the windows. Sliding glass doors open to a private patio framed by mature trees, with the mountains beyond: a serene setting for morning coffee or long dinners as the sun slips behind the ridgeline. Set a few steps above the living room, the expansive formal dining room overlooks it and the greenery beyond, a gracious setting for entertaining. It flows into an open kitchen where white cabinetry plays against dark granite counters, with stainless appliances, a double wall oven, gas cooktop, and center island. An adjoining breakfast area, den, or office with a wet bar and wine refrigerator invites easy gatherings. Move-in ready, with finishes rarely found in a townhome: skim-coated walls and ceilings, wide baseboards, detailed doors and trim, Emtek hardware, The Shade Store window treatments, sculptural custom railings, and distinctive light fixtures. Upstairs, the primary suite wakes to mountain and ridgeline views, with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and a private balcony over the canyon. The walk-in closet, with floor-to-ceiling custom wardrobes and a built-in dresser, is a true dressing room. The spa-inspired bath has a deep soaking tub, a glass-enclosed mosaic-tile shower, and dual sinks flanking a seated vanity. The second bedroom pairs vaulted ceilings with an en-suite bath and two generous closets. Central air, a new tile roof and skylight, and a direct-entry two-car garage with built-ins complete the home. The community offers a pool and spa, fitness room, saunas, and 24-hour patrol, plus optional gated Highlands Park membership. Hike or bike into Topanga State Park from the Highlands, grab coffee at Palisades Highlands Plaza, catch a wave at iconic surf breaks, and end the evening at the newly reopened Palisades Village. Light-filled, peaceful, and wrapped in nature, this feels like home the moment you arrive. More photos and video to come....
