4631 Atoll Avenue

Set behind board-formed concrete walls and beneath mature trees, 4631 Atoll Avenue is an organic-modern residence where material sets the tone from the first glance. The landscape and architecture work as one, with gravel gardens and flagstone set against stacked limestone, shou sugi ban wood and smooth stucco. Inside, that same wood rises two stories in the foyer, paired with a Calacatta Green marble feature and framed by a wide steel pivot door. The main living space sits beneath a warm wood ceiling, opening through wide sliders to the backyard and guest house beyond. The kitchen centers on a waterfall island in leathered Patagonia stone, the slab running up the backsplash behind a professional 48-inch range. The primary suite pairs a calm, light-filled bedroom with a bath in chocolate travertine, centered on a soaking tub and exposed Phylrich fixtures. The remaining three bedrooms in the main residence are joined by baths that each take on their own character, from scalloped silver travertine to black lava rock. A flagstone dining courtyard, heated pool and grass lawn lead to a detached guest house clad in shou sugi ban wood, with its own bedroom and bath. Details like integrated speakers and flush, mud-in vents keep every room quiet and uncluttered. An attached two-car garage completes the home. On a tree-lined street near Riverside Elementary and minutes from Ventura Boulevard’s restaurants and shops, the home offers a rare level of craft in the heart of Sherman Oaks.
