651 Erskine Dr Pacific Palisades, CA 90272

This 13,803 square foot lot, zoned LAR1, is located in Pacific Palisades, offering the potential to build a beautiful home with ocean and canyon views. The property is mostly flat with a finished hillside. The previous house on the lot was 3,049 square feet. The location provides walking distance access to the Palisades Village and the beach. The property features a level entrance on the Bowdoin Alley side, where the previous house had two, two-car garages with a small studio apartment beside them. At the front of the property on Erskine Drive, there is a large, permitted retaining wall halfway up the bank. Below the retaining wall, there are terraced landscape walls for planting. Entry from Erskine Drive is through a small wrought iron fence onto a meandering concrete and stone walkway with an iron handrail. The path includes a pond and sitting area midway up, fed by a manmade waterfall coming from an upper, larger pond. The upper pond has a fountain with a custom rock waterfall and flagstone deck. Water rapids travel underneath a custom arched foot bridge. Planting beds are situated along the path, with concrete seating areas for relaxation. Above the foot bridge is a custom brick and stone hardscape. The path ascends to a concrete patio overlook with views of Temescal Canyon and the ocean.
