Casa Alta is a testament to patience, precision, and an unwavering commitment to architectural excellence. In a landscape as protected and storied as Olde Del Mar, a residence of this caliber-conceived by the definitive local duo of architect Brian Church and construction by Joshua Herbst, is a rare achievement that transcends the typical luxury build. Perched atop a private, lushly wooded parcel, the home offers a vantage point that is both commanding and secluded. The experience is one of a coastal "tree house"-a sophisticated retreat where the Pacific horizon is framed by mature heritage trees, evoking the timeless, grounded elegance of Montecito or Pebble Beach. Complete with all the latest smart home technologies & an elevator that services all levels, this property offers 5 bedrooms, multiple covered deck spaces, an office, a stunning lap pool, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, pool bathroom, turf lawn yard space, lush landscape, citrus trees & more. Every material curated for this residence has been thoughtfully chosen. John McCulley, a visionary for a coastal modern aesthetic, handled the interior design.
