A KING’S COMPOUND

A local development firm is making the Beach Cities beautiful, one house at time.

Agreat house unfolds in ways that pull you through by revealing one surprise after another—full of contrasting scale and light, like a great song that changes tempo and emotion.

It feeds your soul and fills your heart with memorable moments. These types of houses don’t come around often, and when they do, it’s like catching lightning in a bottle.

The home at 522 24th Place in Hermosa Beach is fit for a king—that is Stanley cupwinning former Los Angeles Kings team captain Dustin Brown and his wife, Nicole. When two street-to-street lots became available, they knew they had something special.

Always looking for an opportunity to give a unique, fresh look to a South Bay home, the team at Matt Morris Development sought out the architectural brilliance of Forest Studios and designer Joe Lucas. This dream team came together to create an expansive compound with enormous style and impeccable taste.

A welcoming blend of traditional and modern, this home’s design evokes feelings of warmth and elegance. The floor plan is an architectural work of art boasting flawless attention to detail and incredible style at every turn.

Your eyes are instantly drawn to the dramatic, dark exterior and commanding presence of this residence. The front entrance draws you in through an unexpected breezeway and courtyard, home to a stunning 100-year-old olive tree. Upon entering the living space, the feeling is transformed by the light and bright interior that transitions to a palette of white, grey and blue—taking its cues from the ever-changing skies.

The main living room’s multi-slide doors open to some of the extraordinary amenities like a pool and a sports court. Take your pick: pickleball, volleyball or basketball! And plenty of grass surrounds so you can toss a football or kick a soccer ball. Then there’s the wellness cabana, built for an athlete with a sauna, cold plunge, infrared red light therapy wall and its own bathroom.

A well-appointed kitchen is the hub of entertainment, complete with a separate butler’s pantry. At the top level you will find an open-concept office or workspace. The primary suite is massive—an oasis with a gorgeous bath and spacious walk-in closet. There are two additional ensuite bedrooms on this level, as well as a living space for relaxing.

The basement has two more ensuite bedrooms, an expansive gym and its own living area. The two laundry areas offer a total of four washers and dryers! Completing the breathtaking detail of this home are a solar-paneled roof and four Tesla Powerwalls.

This must-see property is a testament to the commitment to quality and passion for excellence of Matt Morris Development—highly regarded as an innovator of style and design in the South Bay. It is listed by Matt Morris Real Estate Group, under the umbrella of Pacifica Properties. Agents Matt Morris and Christa Lyons are consistently topproducing Realtors in this area, specializing in the luxury market.

This home at 522 24th Place is a family compound with too many details to list. It will feed your soul and fill your heart with memorable moments.
