630 Brooks Ave, Venice, CA 90291

A special property lovingly renovated by its owner, this home is a rare offering. Behind a storybook hedge sits 630 Brooks, a luminous home with a gorgeous, grand yard in one of Venice's most desirable quiet neighborhoods. Enter through the private gate to be greeted by French lavender, a babbling stone fountain, and a cheerful sage door. New wide plank hardwood floors connect a layout that balances openness with intimacy, with an ethereal open living space centered around a new designer kitchen that feels as much like a gallery as it does a cozy place for Saturday morning pancakes. Full of quiet European elegance and radiant California charm, everything has been thoughtfully upgraded. Custom cabinetry, Lucciare quartz countertops, solid antique brass hardware, and a sunlit breakfast nook with Devol heirloom lighting bring sturdy charm to daily rituals. Built in high-end appliances (Forno range, Vitara fridge, Bosch dishwasher), open shelving, and a warm wood island make cooking practical and refined. Then maybe open the glass double doors and take your toast al fresco, because this home is the best of indoor/outdoor living.The expansive backyard is a hidden world. A jasmine-draped trellis just off the double doors gives way to a stone deck. Flowering rosemary sit next to a custom cedar sauna. A fruiting Eureka lemon canopies a cold plunge and hot tub with just enough space between the branches to see the sunset or the stars. Low maintenance native plants bring butterflies and hummingbirds, a mature avocado shades the second wood deck, and purple Japanese maples line the wood fence on either side. This is more than outdoor living; it's a daily invitation to reconnect. All three bedrooms, two upstairs, boast verdant views. The vaulted ceiling, private balcony, and spacious walk-in closet of the primary suite get functional luxury from Moen faucets, Signature Hardware vanity and fixtures, and a new soaking tub with a view of the Santa Monica Mountains in the primary bath. Two additional full baths, one with double sinks and Signature Hardware fixtures en-suite, the other perfect for guests to rinse off sand, have also been fully upgraded. Additional upgrades include everything from a new HVAC and automatic back gate to new ducting to doors. Solar panels and a Tesla charger cut down on energy costs, while a Nest thermostat and drip system provide modern comforts. A substantial garage space at the rear of the property offers extraordinary potential for a creative studio, future guest house, or the home gym it is today. Endless opportunities to tailor the space to your lifestyle await. Beyond the gates, you're perfectly positioned to Gjusta, Superba, and all the other spots on Rose and Abbot Kinney that make Venice world famous. Yet this home feels a world away. From the moment you enter, you're welcomed by a soft natural light that bathes every finish, organic texture, and delightful transition in warmth. 630 Brooks Ave is not just a home, it's a highly livable work of art. Every inch has been considered. Every detail invites you to stay.
