The “Nike House” Estate: A Robert L. Thompson Masterpiece on East Crest Road

High above the tide in the private, gated city of Rolling Hills, this 8,623-square-foot Modern Ranch estate on East Crest Road is the only one of its kind on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Spanning nearly four fully usable acres with panoramic Pacific and city views, the architectural masterpiece was designed by Robert L. Thompson—the creative force behind Nike’s global campus—around a massive oak tree. Highlights include a C-suite executive office, a two-story wellness gym with a sauna, a screening room, a soda fountain wet bar, a detached 2-bedroom guest house, and resort-style grounds featuring an aquatic pool oasis, fruit orchards, and a rose garden.
