Description
On one of Venice's rarest addresses, Nowita Place, a true Walk Street where cars give way to charming pedestrian pathways, lush gardens, and idyllic front porches, sits Nowita Art House, a residence of quiet reinvention. Set on an expansive 6,375-square-foot double lot, this meticulously reimagined 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom minimalist modern Craftsman features a palette of warm natural materials and an effortless connection to the surrounding landscape. Enveloped by a perimeter of bamboo trees, the property offers a remarkable sense of privacy. A magnificent mature eucalyptus tree creates a natural canopy over the grounds, while travertine pathways lead to a generous lawn, outdoor living spaces designed for entertaining, dining, and quiet moments, and a secluded fire pit nook framed by Marina strawberry trees. A cedar tub and cedar sauna further enhance the tranquility of this special retreat. Landscape design by Reger Regenerative. Inside, soaring 20-foot vaulted ceilings fill the living room with light and air, creating an extraordinary sense of volume. Expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape, filling the home with natural light and creating a seamless connection between the interior and gardens. White oak and limestone bring warmth and texture throughout. The fully renovated detached guest house offers exceptional flexibility as a creative studio, home office, wellness space, or private retreat. A rarity on the Venice Walk Streets, the property offers parking for up to six vehicles. Nowita Art House was thoughtfully reimagined by its owner, whose longstanding interest in architecture and preservation includes the stewardship of Los Angeles' iconic Sowden House.
