About this House

There's a quiet kind of beauty here - sunlight filtering through arched windows, soft shadows on plastered walls, and a feeling that you've arrived somewhere that instantly feels like home. This gated single-level Spanish home blends timeless charm with a modern, soulful warmth. Hardwood floors and a classic fireplace anchor the living room, softened by natural light that drifts through skylights above. The newly remodeled kitchen feels both refined and relaxed, with sleek cabinetry, beamed ceilings in the dining area, and steel-framed windows framing views of the garden. The dining area opens wide to the backyard - an outdoor sanctuary layered with terra cotta tile, mature trees, and a pergola for dining beneath string lights. French doors from the primary suite open to the same lush retreat, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor rhythm. A detached studio with kitchenette and bath offers an inspiring space for guests or creative work. Just two blocks from the shopping and dining on Abbot Kinney Blvd, 538 Westminster captures the ease and artistry of Venice living.
