LOCALLA

Reimagined. Reengineered. Redefined. This Mid-Century home was rebuilt with the intention of every material chosen, every sightline considered, every detail designed for the way people actually live. What remains are the bones that made the era iconic: vaulted open-beam ceilings, a sculptural fireplace, and walls of glass. What's new is everything else. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and nearly 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully reworked living space, the home opens with a light-filled great room anchored by a striking freestanding fireplace. A second living area complete with its own fireplace and a wet bar with wine and ice storage connects seamlessly through a folding glass accordion wall that dissolves the line between indoors and out. Close it, and you have a room. Open it, and you have a lifestyle. The kitchen is the true centerpiece: a sweeping quartz island, six-burner professional-style range, French-door refrigerator, and custom oak cabinetry with brass hardware, all framed by picture windows that turn morning coffee into a view over the hills. The primary suite is a retreat unto itself a built-in window seat for slow mornings, a spacious walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath that feels more spa than suburb, finished in scalloped gold-and-white tile with a freestanding soaking tub, dual vessel sinks, and a glass rain shower built for two. Two additional bedrooms and a matching second full bath offer real flexibility for family, guests, or the home office you've been putting off, while a stylish powder room rounds out the main level for guests. Step outside and the home performs just as beautifully: a resort-style pool with a baja shelf and spa, a private outdoor shower tucked behind wood slats, and terraced landscaping climbing the hillside to a citrus tree and a fire pit built for the last hour of daylight. This is a backyard designed around Southern California's real luxury time spent outside. A two-car garage completes the property, and the location can't be beat: minutes from Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, Culver City, the Westside, and an array of shopping and dining destinations. 4494 Don Milagro Drive isn't just a fully renovated Mid-Century home it's a different, better way to spend a day.
