Inside there’s an amazing open layout floor plan that invites the outdoors inside. The many windows and the seriously tall French doors makes this home feel sun drenched and beachy. The two story living room features clear cut walnut floors and a gorgeous fireplace.
The first of the home’s deck spaces is the perfect place for lounging. The enormous sycamore trunks peek out of the wood deck and provide ample shade.
The decks are simply made for entertaining or relaxation after a long day. The spa is enclosed and private and feels literally next to nature.
Gathering around the chic fire pit will be an excellent option on chilly canyon evenings.
And the lovely lap pool is the perfect spot to take a dip when the weather warms up the next morning.
Back inside, the fantastic cook’s kitchen features a large eat-in center island, stainless steel appliances, hood range, plenty of storage, bright light, and easy outdoor access.
The formal dining room also has a pair of french doors to the pool area.
A casual family room has a wall of windows and is perfect for movie night.
A stunning library and office upstairs.
A catwalk upstairs overlooking the main living areas connects gracefully to three bedroom suites all with treetop or ocean views.
The (5!) bathrooms in this home are each wonderful and each have an original and unique design.
Another bedroom, spacious dedicated laundry room, and a bonus space currently being used as a yoga studio complete inside.
But the outdoor space continues. The rooftop deck offers spectacular views of the Pacific ocean and is an amazing space for entertaining boasting an outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and built-in seating. The privacy and wonder of this property make it truly unique. Close to the award winning Canyon Elementary school, and signature canyon restaurants and downtown Santa Monica, not to mention the beach itself, 556 Dryad Road is just waiting for a family to call it home.
