About this property
A visionary estate by Paul McClean, offered with architectural, structural, and civil plans already submitted to the city now in active haul route and permitting review. Located on Billionaire's Row in the coveted Bird Streets, 9226 Swallow Drive presents a rare opportunity to build a world-class residence designed by the renowned architect Paul McClean. This unique offering eliminates much of the early-stage development timeline, allowing a streamlined path from vision to vertical construction. Conceived to maximize scale, volume, and jetliner city-to-ocean views, McClean's proposed design spans approximately 9,000 square feet with expansive frontage, and is a masterclass in modernist precision and indoor-outdoor living. Signature elements include floating staircases, dramatic water features, expansive glass walls, and a seamless blend of architecture and terrain. Planned features include: A dramatic arrival sequence with reflecting pool and motor court. Expansive public rooms with soaring ceilings and panoramic views. A 100-foot infinity-edge pool with spa and wellness terrace cantilevered over the hillside. Lower-level entertainment floor with screening room, bar/lounge, and gym. A luxurious primary suite with dual bathrooms, dressing rooms, and private terraces. Multiple guest suites, a flexible bedroom ideal for staff use, and dual powder rooms. Secure garage parking and ample indoor/outdoor flex space. Every detail of the proposed estate is curated to elevate the experience of modern hillside living while honoring the prestige of its surroundings. With city approvals already underway and an architectural pedigree in place, 9226 Swallow offers a rare launchpad for an iconic residential statement in the Bird Streets.
