LOCALLA

Poised above Sunset Plaza in the Hollywood Hills, 9056 St. Ives Drive is a newly completed modern residence and a study in architectural clarity. Clad almost entirely in Italian Ceppo stone and framed in dark aluminum and glass, the home is oriented toward unobstructed city-to-ocean views from downtown Los Angeles to the Pacific, with Century City at the center. Developed by Maison by PGB, it is defined by clean horizontal planes, stone-wrapped bands, and a suspended infinity-edge pool that appears to hover above the city.The 5-bedroom, 8-bath residence spans 3 levels served by an elevator, with 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a sculptural steel stair rising beneath a skylight. A chef's kitchen with a prep kitchen anchors the entry level, and the primary suite occupies a private wing of its own.Wellness is treated as architecture. A travertine-clad home spa with a steam room, sauna and massage room sits alongside a full gym and opens to a jacuzzi and cold plunge. A private home theater, a bar and lounge, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar complete the interiors.Beneath its beauty, this sustainable luxury home is quietly self-sufficient. It turns to the sun and the breeze, draws power from solar, gathers rain for its gardens, and is built of fire-resistant stone meant to endure for generations.A gated entry with parking for 10 ensures complete privacy, moments from the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles, CA 90069.
