About This Home

As of February 2021

Shhh! Don't tell anyone that there is affordable real estate in Ritz Pointe! Ocean breezes and sunlight flood this ground level recently updated beach condo unit in the prestigious gate-guarded community. With just a 1 mile scenic walk down the walking path to Salt Creek Beach and a panoramic ocean view spa, this is the perfect getaway! Inside you'll find crisp, white paint, 5.5-inch baseboards, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The fireplace has been updated with a stone facade. The pony wall has been removed to open up the unit. New door casings and an updated bathroom remodel modernize this condo. Plantation shutters throughout. A clean, white kitchen completes the interior with quartz countertops and a large ceramic sink. The master bedroom is spacious with a sliding glass door to your private patio and the laundry room. There is a huge walk-in closet with a shelving unit installed floor to ceiling. The way this unit is situated along the corridor, it gets breezes from the ocean and ample sunlight that many other units do not. A great clubhouse, workout gym, beautiful pool & spa area with modern resort-style furniture, along with 2 other spa locations are among the amenities here. The panoramic ocean view spa area is absolutely STUNNING! Watch 4 different firework displays there on the 4th! Walk through your easement through Monarch Beach Golf Course and multi-million dollar homes to the ocean. The HOA is always improving our little secret. Shhh.
