Gietz Luxury Estates

Gietz Luxury Estates is a third-generation design-build firm specializing in bespoke luxury residences in Manhattan Beach, California, and Arizona. Established in 1981, the firm says it has realized more than 300 curated estates, drawing on three generations of craftsmanship and a focus on enduring artistry. Its portfolio spans a range of architectural styles, including Contemporary American Modern, Southwest Territorial, Spanish Colonial Revival, California Ranch, Mediterranean Revival, and Desert Contemporary homes.

The company guides clients through the custom-home process, beginning with conversations about their needs, lifestyle, habits, and aspirations. It brings together a project design team to coordinate architecture, interiors, budget, and program, then applies value engineering to source high-grade materials at competitive pricing. During construction, its team manages project details from groundbreaking through completion. Gietz describes its approach as attentive and collaborative, aiming to preserve each client’s vision while making the building experience enjoyable. The firm is accepting commissions for 2027 and invites prospective clients to begin a conversation by email or through its Manhattan Beach contact address.
