This comfortable yet stylish contemporary home on the Palos Verdes Peninsula that’s been completely remodeled to the nines with high-end finishes and furnishings by designer/builder Roman Pisar.

Crenshaw-7

Now on the market for $1.979 million, listed by James Sanders of Re/Max Estate Properties, the custom residence offers a wealth of upscale elements, including polished limestone flooring, high-gloss Spanish zebra wood, solar panels, LaCantina doors and windows, and soaring ceilings, just to name a few.

“Almost anybody who sees the house would say that it is unique for the global interior and exterior design, which is very contemporary and modern compared with the area where it’s been built,” says Pisar.

“You can feel the difference when you first step into it; you will feel the silence and see a peaceful tropical oasis surrounding the whole house through each window and door.

As far as the design, the most interesting facet is the technology we put into it to make it a smart home; everything can be monitored from a phone or any personal device.”

Situated at 26688 Crenshaw Blvd.—on a private fenced and gated lot boasting alluring courtyards and lush landscaping—the dwelling was originally built in 1961 and updated in 2018.

When it’s a builder’s personal home, you know it’s going to be good.

Expect 3,550 square feet of fully remodeled living space on two levels, complete with a chef’s kitchen outfitted with a built-in buffet and dining table, Thermador professional appliances, flush-mounted doors and drawers, and crystal stone countertops; baths with radiant heat flooring; a six-camera security system with mobile monitoring; six TVs with surround sound and Internet; and a stunning, 10-foot-long panoramic fireplace.

Yet other standout features of the home include four bedrooms (most notably, three master suites, as well as a room currently being used as an office); a family room with a large fireplace; and an adjacent sunroom with floor-to-ceiling windows offering spectacular views.

Outdoors, the 25,136-square-foot lot holds a Bocce ball court, kitchen and barbecue, waterfall, and saltwater pool and spa.

“As a builder for 35 years, I’m always amazed by the transformation of an old existing property and how it can be reborn into a unique, top-notch house,” says Pisar.

“I love to save any and all homes that have the potential of being the leader in their area; my slogan is, ‘Save that house.’”
