Perched on a sculpted Palos Verdes hillside with the Pacific glistening in the distance, this sprawling Spanish Mediterranean custom home on a large Via Fernandez lot—is not just a home, it’s a destination! “This home doesn’t just impress you,” agent Cameron Stearns of Compass says of the architectural heart of the property. “It sets the standard for everything else.” Of course, a house this lovely does not escape notice for long—and in this particular instance, not at all.
