Modern Home Overlooking Riviera Country Club In Santa Monica, California

Thomas Forbes

This over 22,000 square foot home has some of the best views over Riviera Country Club, and at a price point of $60 million, it should. The seven bedroom and 13 bathroom three-story mansion built in 2012 sits on a 1.34 acre lot in the heart of one of the most desirable areas in Santa Monica and Los Angeles. Extensively remodeled in 2019, the residence is gated and private, and features top amenities like a 125 foot pool, spa, theater and indoor basketball court. The indoor and outdoor resort-like areas flow smoothly between each other to make get-togethers more intimate.

Grand Entrance

Once you’re past the gate at the beginning of the driveway, you’re immediately greeted by the property’s incredible contemporary design and palm trees lining the driveway up to the home. A water feature wows guests at the motor court which includes parking for 30 cars.

Scenic Backyard

Enjoy the scenic golf course and mountain views from the 125-foot pool lined with glass, spa, or fire pit seating area on those cool, cozy evenings. The covered pool cabana features a 16-seat dining table and a full kitchen with premium wood cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances.

Expansive Interior

This custom designed and remodeled home by Molori showcases a clean white aesthetic with light rift oak floors, black trim and strategically placed glass to balance the amount of light into the home. The furniture has also been designed by Molori along with Minotti, Flexform, Fendi, Bentley and other top designers ensuring a premium design and feel to every piece that compliments each room.

The gourmet kitchen has state of the art appliances as well as an additional catering and prep kitchen area.

The primary suite has 2,500 square feet of space, a fireplace, dual marble bathrooms, and dual walk-in closets, each showcasing its own spectacular materials and finishes. Walls of glass open to a private balcony with views of Riviera. The additional bedrooms are also just as deluxe providing their own ensuite bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling wood and beautifully finished walls.

The inhouse spa has the perfect setting and ambiance so you don’t have to go out for a message. The indoor basketball court speaks for itself, and the private theater is ready for movies being curated with couches and tables. The home also has an elevator and an underground eight car garage.

Riviera Country Club

Founded in 1926, the par 71 course was designed by George Thomas Jr. and William P. Bell. Some current/past famous members of the club include Adam Sandler, Tom Brady and Tiger Woods. The course also hosts the Genesis Open every year which itself is hosted by Tiger Woods. To become a member at the prestigious country club, there is currently a waiting list. Initiation fees are between $50,000 to $110,000 and annual fees are about $10,000 according to Gables Insider.
