Designed by award-winning local architect Mark Singer, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom residence captures his hallmark balance of precision and ease. With approximately 5,342 square feet of interior space, the home is carved into a bluff above Victoria Beach, one of the most sought-after stretches of coastline in Southern California. Singer’s legacy lives in the home’s fluid indoor-outdoor rhythm, understated materials, and sharp-edged geometry that never competes with the setting.
Inside, a long corridor leads past sculptural staircases and warm concrete walls to glass-wrapped living spaces that open to the Pacific. The kitchen anchors the main floor with an oversized island, bar seating, and ocean views that carry into the dining area and lounge.
Upstairs, bedrooms are positioned to make the most of the horizon line. Downstairs, smart home automation and minimalist finishes continue through every room. Outside, multiple patios—including one with a fire feature—are tucked into the bluff’s contours for privacy and panoramic sunset views. At every turn, the house is designed to frame what’s already there: water, sky, and light.
