714 6th Ave, Venice, CA, 90291
About This Home
The personal residence of designer and builder Charles Ward, this home feels layered with purpose, not just designed- where every space carries a point of view. Set on one of the larger lots in Venice, there's a rare sense of peace here. Light is intentionally invited through clerestory windows, French doors and corridors. Spaces open up. There's privacy, quiet, and the kind of separation that allows you to think, create, and reset. Inside, the home unfolds like a wonderful book. Clean lines are softened by texture. Materials are layered in a way that feels warm, not precious- designed to age, to be used, to tell a story over time. Nothing feels forced. Nothing feels generic. The living spaces flow easily into the outdoors, creating a rhythm that suits both slow mornings and evenings with people you want to linger with. The kitchen sits naturally within the home-connected, functional, and understated.Upstairs, the primary suite has a generous adjacent atelier, with a simplicity that lets the light and materials inspire your most beautiful work. A secondary suite upstairs acts as a wellness space and meditation altar- whatever the next chapter requires. 714 6th Ave captures the essence of Venice: open sky, ocean air, and a place to step away without leaving home. Moments from Abbot Kinney and the beach, yet distinctly its own world. For those who value richness, quality, and character.
