About This Home

As of June 2025

This home is a WOW and priced to sell quickly! Highly upgraded in every aspect, panoramic ocean and mountain views, and a highly motivated seller. This stunning 1642 square feet condo offers breathtaking views of the ocean, Palos Verdes Peninsula, Aliso Wood Canyon, city lights, and Saddleback Mountain. Perched above Seaview Park, you will find a perfect blend of a lively, city-like atmosphere with great people-watching opportunities during the day, and a serene, silent environment at night. Several hiking trails are within walking distance.

Enjoy the luxury of watching the sunset over the ocean from your patio, turning evenings into a vacation-like experience. This low-maintenance condo was completely remodeled in 2023, featuring extensive upgrades including unseen additions like new PEX piping, new duct work, an energy-efficient heat pump, a water softener, ADT security system, and Ring doorbell with patio camera. The interior boasts a gorgeous Jonathan Adler chandelier, luxury motorized window shades, custom art lights, a lighted bar with an 18-bottle wine refrigerator, and a custom stone-installed fireplace surround with renovations extending to both inside and outside.

The dine-in kitchen is a chef’s dream with LG appliances, new custom cabinets, a pantry, a "waterfall" kitchen counter design with a stainless steel sink, and quartz countertops. Additional upgrades include new screen doors, tile and carpet flooring, a custom writer desk and cabinetry, a new entry gate, a patio cover, and custom closets with extensive shoe racks. The bathrooms are elegantly designed, adding to the contemporary feel of the home.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo, with the third bedroom currently used as a den, offers both activity and beauty during the day, and peace and quiet at night, making it the perfect home for those seeking a resort lifestyle with the best of both worlds.

Welcome to Monarch Summit II, a vibrant 55 and up neighborhood that is anything but your parents' retirement community. Not just for retirees—this community is full of life and energy. Residents enjoy access to a clubhouse, pool, and spa, along with numerous social events and parties that make it easy to meet new friends and stay active. This is a place where you can enjoy a rich social life and an active coastal lifestyle, with a welcoming atmosphere that appeals to people of all ages.
