Shingle Style Craftsman

 

With a stunning panorama of Santa Monica Bay, this house is situated in the Huntington Palisades on a bluff above Pacific Coast Highway.  Ward designed a shingle-style mansion that recalls the grand beachfront homes of Newport, Rhode Island.  One of the plan’s unique features is an expansive family room cleverly bookended by a square paneled library and a round paneled breakfast room.  

There is a curved bay living room, an octagonal formal dining room, a professional gourmet kitchen and a vast skylighted outdoor lounge with a deep trellised roof.  Equally dramatic is the second-floor master suite’s bay windows that attract colorful sunsets and cool breezes with its 180-degree view of the Pacific Ocean.
