"Razor, designed by San Diego-based Wallace Cunningham, is a quiet sanctuary with museum-like architecture and unobstructed views of the Pacific. The modern home was constructed of concrete, steel and structural glass so plentiful that it feels as though the house is one with the outdoors... Glowing like an illuminated jewel box, the four-bedroom, six-bathroom estate was designed "to capture the magnificence of the site, to allow the owners to live as part of nature," says the architect, Wallace E. Cunningham of San Diego. The listing price: $39 million... Dozens of caissons were embedded into the hillside and attached to the house to ensure its permanence at the edge of Southern California's infamously unstable precipice. The property has four bedrooms and six bathrooms in 11,000 square feet. The lot size is about half an acre (or 21,000 square feet; not much left over)... The house has a living room; a dining room; adjacent chef's and family kitchens; a media room; a 4,000-bottle wine cellar that may be used for storage; a computer room; an indoor gym and spa; an infinity pool; a terrace; radiant heat; and a seven-car garage. The property has beach access."
Rico says it is always good to be the prince... (But he got sold a bill of goods if he thinks that anything is going to actually 'ensure its permanence at the edge of Southern California's infamously unstable precipice'. That cliff face is migrating east, and at an observable and measurable rate; permanence ain't in the cards.)
