24 Eastwind St , #2

Description

Set mid-block on one of LA's most coveted walk streets, 24 Eastwind #2 is a rare architectural townhome that lives like a standalone home. A true sanctuary by the sea, with 2,356+ square feet across four levels in the only two-unit building on the stretch, tucked into the quietest, safest zone of the Marina Peninsula, a neighborhood favored by entertainers and professional athletes. Designed by brutalist architect Peter Katzman, the home blends sculptural lines with tactile materials. His signature stucco facade with custom stained glass, shimmer-infused poured concrete floors, steel hanging steps, and custom steel metalwork carry through all four levels of Unit #2. The current owners spent the last decade meticulously restoring the home to Katzman's original 2007 vision. The wow factor begins with soaring 40' ceilings, a dramatic vertical canvas anchored by a 20'+ indoor palm tree and light cascading through every floor. The home includes custom maple banquettes in Italian sport fabrics integrated into the living spaces and framing ocean views from every ocean-facing window, making it a turnkey residence for its new owners. Reverse-beach layout puts the primary living areas up top to maximize light, views, and indoor-outdoor flow. It has 3.5 baths, with one on every floor. Ocean views are available from the 3rd and 4th floors, with sight lines to the Santa Monica Mountains and Hollywood on a clear day. The 4th floor is an entertainer's dream: a seamless indoor-outdoor zone with panoramic Marina and Venice Beach views, a full bath that doubles as a guest suite, and a patio that frames the annual 4th of July fireworks. Kitchen features Gaggenau appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Miele built-in coffee system, and a working gas fireplace. Every bath is fully renovated. The primary suite underwent a full gut and structural renovation, preserving the iconic vintage Boffi tub while adding a ceiling-mounted soaking fixture, custom shower, and integrated steam system. A comprehensive 2021 garage and exterior upgrade included fully resealing the stucco, enlarging the stainless steel scuppers, and resealing all drain points. The garage itself was completely remodeled with a new industrial spring system for the door, built-in storage, a new washer/dryer, and a Tesla charging station. A brand-new Doorbird video intercom delivers security and seamless street access for visitors. Lush front garden and koi pond moat open to a walk-street yard, rebuilt in 2019, which is now a mature succulent landscape with an outdoor shower and privacy hedge. ~500 feet to Eastwind Beach, walking distance to the Venice Pier, minutes to Abbot Kinney, and 10 minutes to LAX. This isn't just a home. It's a westside cultural artifact, fully reimagined for the design-obsessed buyer who wants a true unicorn.
