5208 Sanchez Drive, Los Angeles, California 90008

Situated on a hillside with spectacular city views, this home, designed by architect Manish Desai and brought to life by Gaia Construction defies expectations. It is at once modern and classic and pays homage to mid-century design. The lines between inside and outside blur as the surrounding nature and the expansive views come alive within the home. There are many unique architectural features, including a glass bridge to the primary suite that makes you feel like you’re walking on air, glass walls that open onto the center courtyard, spacious decks, a sound-proof screening room with concrete walls, a basement level that will accommodate whatever your imagination conjures, an elevator, a solar system and a heated pool and spa in the middle of a grassy, private yard. The highest quality materials have been used throughout including Italian tile and porcelain, Miele appliances, custom solid Oak cabinetry, a solar system and a Control 4 smart home system. Located in Baldwin Vista, one of the city’s most thriving and upcoming communities. The neighborhood backs up to Kenneth Hahn State Park so there is no cut-through traffic and great hiking accessible right from your front door. The hip dining scenes of West Adams and downtown Culver City are moments away, and the entire area is going through a renaissance with several new projects in development. There is truly nothing else like this home on the market.
