762 Rosecrans Avenue is not simply a home for lease, but a highly published architectural residence known as “Zen House,” designed by award-winning Santa Monica firm Minarc. The home has received international design recognition, including honors from the Architecture MasterPrize, The Chicago Athenaeum, Good Design, and Interior Design’s Best of Year Awards, and has been featured in leading design and luxury publications including Design Milk and Mansion Global.
Celebrated for its minimalist design, privacy-forward street presence, and serene, nature-inspired atmosphere, the residence was conceived to transform a prominent main-street setting into a calm, private retreat. Guests are welcomed through a central outdoor courtyard anchored by a koi pond and tranquil water feature, which not only creates an immediate sense of calm, but also helps soften street noise. 
Inside, the architecture is defined by warmth, restraint, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Expansive sliding doors, abundant natural light, cross-ventilation, and a thoughtfully integrated roof deck create an environment that feels open, airy, and deeply connected to the outdoors. The property also includes an integrated ADU guest suite, while the outdoor spaces were designed for both recreation and entertaining, with a poolside setting and adjoining leisure areas that enhance the home’s resort-like feel.
Materiality and sustainability are central to the home’s appeal. Wood, concrete, and fire elements are paired with a restrained palette to create a peaceful, sophisticated interior, while features such as Kebony modified lumber, prefabricated panel construction, and radiant floor heating powered by heat pumps reflect a rare commitment to both design excellence and environmental performance. Mansion Global also highlighted the home’s environmentally minded construction and fire-resistant qualities, further underscoring its thoughtful, forward-looking design.
For a luxury renter seeking something far beyond the ordinary, 762 Rosecrans offers a rare opportunity to inhabit a globally recognized modern home in the heart of Manhattan Beach—private, design-driven, and deeply intentional in every detail.
