About This Home

As of May 2024

This is your opportunity to own a PANORAMIC OCEAN view residence at The Galaxy Tower. Enjoy incredible coastline and amazing sunset views from Newport Coast to the Belmont Pier, and Catalina Island, to the Queen Mary. After our storms this winter, even snow capped mountains are yours to enjoy from your main bedroom windows. This iconic mid century building has only 4 units per floor and no common walls. EVERY room has an ocean, city, or sunset views. No building on the coast compares! This residence has over 1500 square feet of generous living space with access to a large OCEAN view balcony from BOTH the living room and main bedroom areas. Compare the square footage of this Ocean Boulevard condo to the others you might be viewing and you will see the living space, room size, and views are unbeatable. The property has beautiful engineered bamboo flooring and was just freshly painted. The kitchen has been updated with new stainless steel appliances and updated cabinetry and tiled counters. Even the bathrooms have large windows with views to the neighborhood and city beyond. Double sinks are featured in the main bathroom. Ocean views mesmerize at every turn. Closets line the entire wall of both bedrooms allowing a generous amount of storage not seen in most condos. The guest bedroom is comfortably sized and can accommodate both a bed and office area as needed. There is even a large oversized storage closet in the common area hallway directly outside the unit. It is the only luxury high rise in historic Bluff Park, an area known for its' timeless architecture and proximity to the ocean. Cross the street, head down the stairs and in minutes find yourself on the beach. Enjoy miles of coastline on the bike and jogging paths below. The building is situated mid way between DTLB, Belmont Shore and Retro Row allowing for a variety of dining and shopping options. Live your Southern CA dream!
