Nestled in bustling Los Angeles, there’s a beachy haven where the sounds of the city quiet and the sun shines a little brighter between the trees. This is the former Venice pad of Matt Stone, creator of South Park, and it’s now on the market for $6.5M. With a spacious lot and plenty of West Coast ambiance, the home is a California dream, offering the best of L.A. life.

The home’s Silver Triangle location is one fit for Hollywood royalty—in fact, a former supermodel previously owned the home in addition to Stone. From this highly coveted quarter, you can easily walk to the beach and the famous Venice Canals. The triangle also touches Washington Boulevard, which is known for its eateries and electric nightlife.
But even in the heart of the L.A. hotspot, Stone’s former home is the definition of an oasis, boasting one of the largest parcels in all of Venice with only one adjacent neighbor. The corner, double lot is bathed in an abundance of natural light, which dances between an array of trees and bushes bearing tropical fruits and flowers—and makes for an exceedingly private refuge.

In this world of sunny seclusion, the casual, yet creative atmosphere of Venice still shines through with a number of touches that reflect the neighborhood's unique essence. The extensively remodeled Danish Modern-inspired contemporary home marries modern, organic, and handmade details, which come together in the polished and stained concrete floors; the rough-hewn, yet softened wooden posts and beams; and in the plumbing fixtures, tilework, and hardware.

Tall perimeter walls and gates enclose the beachside compound, ensuring the utmost privacy for days spent at the outdoor kitchen and hot tub—features that solidify the outdoor Southern California lifestyle as they mingle with the yard’s lush garden, which was designed by honored rosarians Stephen Scaniello and Tom Carruth.

Indoors, a tailored level of fit and finish is apparent throughout, especially in spaces where the property’s natural charm is ushered indoors. The home’s park-like grounds are always nearby with accordion walls of glass, which collapse to merge with the downstairs open floor plan and make for a true indoor-outdoor experience. In the master chef’s kitchen, the outdoor views meet details like custom tiles by famous San Francisco potter, Mary Mar Kennan.
