About This Home
As of April 2021An opportunity not to be missed in this impeccable, light-filled Ocean Park retreat minutes to the sand and a mere two blocks to Main Street! Completely renovated, this 2 Bed/3 Bath sophisticated townhome offers a spacious reverse floor-plan that takes advantage of the views. //About this home: Tucked away and private, this stunning home has been renovated all the way through. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the double-height living room with sunshine, while the ocean breeze enters through the three balconies on each floor. Ideal for entertaining, the living area blends into the kitchen, equipped with top-tier appliances, Caesarstone counters, and warm, cabinetry. Chic tile work, a perfectly located fireplace, and beautiful finishes throughout create a clean stylish look. //We Love: Make your way up to the loft -- perfect for a home office. Or head downstairs to the 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 baths - one with a soaking tub, one with a rain shower. //The Neighborhood: Located in a prime Santa Monica location, you are two blocks some of LA's most well-known restaurants, shops, bars, and boutiques. A mere minutes to the beach, Santa Monica Pier, and Expo Line. This is SoCal living at its finest!
