Venice NeighborhoodAbout This Home
8 Brooks Avenue, the prestigious Fenmar Building, is home to the
Venice Beach Lofts, which are creative live/work lofts at the
northwest corner of Venice Beach, offering breathtaking views of the
ocean and the Santa Monica mountains. The Fenmar Building was
originally constructed in 1921 and underwent a full renovation 2006
setting the standard for style and luxury in North beach with the finest
design and finishes. The building boasts pristine white oak floors
throughout, stainless steel appliances, rift oak cabinets in kitchen and
bathroom, laundry facilities, secure keypad entry system, subterranean
parking, and bicycle and surfboard storage. Venice exudes vibrancy
and variety in its electric nightlife, most of which is along its famous
beach and Boardwalk. The Venice Beach Lofts take full advantage of
its premier location on the Venice Beach Boardwalk, which features a
sandy beach along the Pacific with lively local restaurants and shops,
along with street vendors and performers. Windward Plaza, the heart
of the Venice Beach Boardwalk, is just a 5-minute walk and features
the Public Art Walls, Venice Skate Park, basketball courts, and Muscle
Beach. Take a break Friday morning for a short 15-minute walk to the
Venice Farmers Market that has been operating on South Venice
Boulevard since 1987. The market provides a wide array of fresh
produce, coffee, and friendly local merchants. Head to Abbott Kinney
Boulevard, just two blocks away, for high-end fashion, jewelry, art
galleries, and gift shops. Santa Monica's Main Street is only a
half-mile and offers even more boutique shopping and scenic beaches.
Traveling around Venice can be done by riding a bicycle or walking.
Pedestrians appreciate the beach and boardwalk areas with wide
walkways designed for skating, cycling, and walking. Interstate 10 is
accessible by traveling approximately two miles north to Santa
Monica, which leads to Los Angeles. Public transportation is readily
available, with stops on all major roads, and one just two blocks up
Brooks Avenue on Main Street. The Venice Beach Lofts present a
unique opportunity to lease creative live/work space, surrounded by
the very best amenities in a neighborhood that is considered the heart
of Silicon Beach.
