    What's special

    Welcome to Villa Sole Mio, a rare and romantic Mediterranean estate North of Montana, where timeless European character meets the art of refined California living. Spanning approximately 5,034 square feet, the residence is designed for both intimate everyday living and elegant entertaining, with custom wrought ironwork, soaring frescoed ceilings, imported Italian fixtures, arched windows, marble floors, and exquisite craftsmanship throughout. Set behind a private gated driveway, the home immediately transports you with a sense of Old World charm. A graceful serpentine staircase serves as an architectural centerpiece, while arched openings and intricate iron detailing create a natural rhythm from room to room. The European country-style kitchen is warm and inviting, accented by copper details and complemented by a sunlit breakfast area surrounded by custom wall coverings and garden views. An elegant formal dining room sets the stage for memorable dinners and soires throughout the year.The primary retreat is a romantic sanctuary with soaring ceilings, a fireplace, and custom glass and wrought iron doors opening to a private balcony. A spa-like bath completes the suite with beautifully considered finishes and a sense of quiet indulgence. Throughout the home, bedrooms open to natural light, greenery, and charming balcony moments, while marble-clad baths, sculptural vanities, and decorative details reinforce the home's distinctly European point of view. A private guest suite provides additional flexibility for guests, staff, or a dedicated studio. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, Villa Sole Mio offers generous accommodations without sacrificing the intimacy and individuality that make it so special. From frescoed ceilings and imported finishes to romantic balconies and garden views, elegance and romance reveal themselves at every turn. Villa Sole Mio is more than a home; it is a one-of-a-kind European-inspired retreat in one of Santa Monica's most coveted neighborhoods.
