A Mediterranean Welcome
The entry sequence carries the calm of a private retreat. Mature olive and lemon trees, tumbled stone, and a quiet garden path set a European tone, while the neighborhood delivers one of the Palisades’ most coveted pockets near the Riviera Country Club. At the center of the property, an old olive tree becomes a unifying motif, anchoring indoor–outdoor moments throughout the home.
Light, Craft, and Scale
A custom iron-and-glass door opens to a double-height foyer filled with daylight. The formal living room introduces the home’s palette of white oak, stone, and soft plaster.
A limestone fireplace echoes the materials used outdoors, while designer Ashley of Outline Studios layers vintage Italian pieces throughout the rooms. Many of these items can be purchased with the home, adding to its sense of authenticity.
Dining with a View
The dining room is refined but relaxed. Oversized windows frame the Mediterranean garden outside, and rift white oak paneling warms the walls. A vintage Italian marble table and sculptural Nickey Kehoe sconces give the space an everyday elegance.
A Considered Circulation
A wide hallway frames the heritage olive tree like a living artwork.
Custom railings and gentle plaster curves define the staircase, while the powder room stands out with its floating stone vanity and rich inlay.
The Heart of the Home
The family room opens directly to the backyard and centers on a striking blue fusion marble mantel.
It leads into a chef’s kitchen defined by Petit Granit island stone, Calacatta Monet counters, handmade ceramic tile, and a 60-inch La Cornue range. A walk-through pantry, hidden storage, and mudroom complete the space with quiet practicality.
Guest Comfort and Work-from-Home Ease
A private guest suite includes Zellige tilework, brass accents, and its own exterior entrance.
The nearby office, wrapped in rift white oak and opening to the pool, is both serene and functional.
A Primary Suite Meant to Be Lived In
Upstairs, a skylit landing leads to the primary suite, where herringbone floors, a sculptural fireplace, and a private balcony elevate everyday life.
Dual closets include a boutique-style dressing room, and the ensuite bathroom features sculptural stonework, a soaking tub with a view, and a glass-and-iron shower. Three additional bedrooms complete the upper floor, each with its own character.
A Lower Level for Wellness and Play
The basement surprises with scale and intention. A 1,600-bottle wine cellar opens to an entertainment lounge with a kitchenette and wet bar.
A hidden door reveals a full wellness center with a gym lit by a skylight, steam shower, sauna, cold plunge, massage room, and spa-style bath.
A dedicated home theater wrapped in custom millwork brings a cinematic finish.
A Modern Mediterranean Vision
Chateau Corsica is more than an estate. It is a lifestyle retreat shaped by texture, light, and thoughtful proportions. Every room connects to the central garden, every material choice speaks to craftsmanship, and every detail supports a calm, sophisticated way of living beside the Los Angeles coast.
