Aug. 11--Called La Casa Moderna, this updated Modernist-style residence in Palos Verdes Estates was once owned by former Lakers guard and two-time NBA champion Sasha Vujacic. Crystal light fixtures, remote-controlled fireplaces and Venetian-style plaster lend a polished look to the two-level floor plan, while floor-to-ceiling windows bring in coastline and ocean views. Outdoors, a swimming pool and cascading waterfall fountain sit between the main house and a recently added, 900-square-foot guesthouse.
