An extraordinary setting. A blank canvas for a legacy home. Nestled within the coveted Palisades Hills enclave of Palisades Highlands, 16740 Monte Hermoso offers a truly exceptional opportunity to create a custom luxury estate on a rare and expansive 19,000+ square foot flat lot. Set against a breathtaking backdrop of mountain and ocean views, this premier homesite provides an extraordinary canvas for a residence designed entirely around your vision. The generous parcel offers the potential for a home exceeding 5,700 square feet, with abundant space for sophisticated indoor-outdoor living, resort-style amenities, lush gardens, and private entertaining spaces. With Phase 1 and Phase 2 debris removal completed, and the existing pool and spa appearing to remain intact, the property may offer a valuable head start toward realizing its next chapter. The expansive grounds are exceptionally well suited to creating a one-of-a-kind retreat that takes full advantage of its serene coastal setting. Perched above the marine layer, Palisades Highlands is celebrated for its sunshine, sweeping views, and spectacular mountain sunsets. Here, the natural beauty of the Santa Monica Mountains meets the relaxed elegance of Pacific Palisades, creating an incomparable setting for everyday living. Residents enjoy access to the Palisades Hills HOA and Recreation Center, with amenities including tennis courts, basketball, a fitness center, pool, spa, children's playground, and clubhouse. HOA dues also include common-area maintenance, 24-hour patrol, and vacation-watch services. The clubhouse is currently being rebuilt. Convenience is equally compelling. Palisades Circle is just moments away, offering local favorites and services including Pacific Coast Pilates, a hair studio, piano lessons, and a wine shop. At the base of the Highlands, Highlands Plaza provides easy access to Spruzzo, Starbucks, a martial arts studio, etc. And with the beach, Palisades Village, hiking trails, and an abundance of outdoor recreation all just minutes away, 16740 Monte Hermoso represents a rare opportunity to build a truly remarkable estate in one of Southern California's most desirable coastal communities.
