Upstairs, the spacious Master suite has French doors that lead to a peaceful, large south-facing balcony. Two additional large bedrooms both showcase large lofts, creating extra space for sleeping and hobbies. The extra large bedroom on the North side of the house has 2 sets of French doors leading to a large, wrap-around balcony.
To top it all off, this house has a great, ocean-view rooftop deck to relax and enjoy viewing our beaches and Catalina Island.
