Venice, California is a buzzing beach town with upscale commercial and residential pockets. Not far from the free-spirited Venice Boardwalk, Muscle Beach, funky shops, stylish boutiques and foodie hotspots is a brand new construction quaint modernistic Oxford Avenue home designed by lead architect Matthew Royce.
This envy-inducing split-level rental home, owned by Royce, who also served as its general building contractor, is equipped with a custom-made Schweiss 13.8' x 10.8' one-piece hydraulic designer door with electric photo eye sensors and is clad in glass. What's really unique about the home is the hydraulic door opens from the living room to overlook a private outdoor patio and lets fresh air into the home.
"I chose the hydraulic door because of limited space and the hydraulic door gave more of a clear opening. I also chose it for headroom and I like how the highly reflective glass becomes a sun shade for the living room," said Royce.
“ The door is great, well built and works very well as advertised. I go and show it to people all the time. It makes for a great rental point; people love it - no one has ever seen anything like it on a house. I researched different types of doors online and looked at different examples on the Schweiss Doors website. It seemed like you were the only ones who could do this type of door and you have a good reputation. ”
