Description
If you are you looking for a bustling, traffic filled, busy lifestyle, this is not the home for you! If being surrounded by tropical landscaping & canopies of centuries old trees filled with parrots & native birds, the calming, peaceful sound of water flowing thru Rustic creek, or happy, waving neighbors taking in the scenery is more your speed, then this is exactly where you need to be. Situated on the most sought after street in Rustic Canyon, offered for the first time in over 45 years. Offering exceptional privacy and a true sense of retreat in one of Santa Monica's most coveted neighborhoods. Built in 1906, this classic Craftsman cottage features a welcoming, oversized front porch to enjoy East Rustic Rd's micro-climate & the surrounding sounds of nature, including Rustic Creek. The home has been thoughtfully maintained and updated over the years, with upgrades including stainless steel appliances with a Bertazzoni range, solid wood details, dual-pane Anderson windows, and professionally designed exterior hardscaping, decks, fencing, and lighting. The existing home offers a strong foundation and livable comfort today, while presenting a rare opportunity to expand, enhance, or reimagine. Second story space is an attic conversion. Whether restoring the charm, creating a larger custom residence, or blending indoor-outdoor living, the possibilities are exceptional. A peaceful canyon setting moments from the beach, canyon restaurants and all Santa Monica has to offer. Vacant and ready for its next chapter.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePaul Revere Middle School should not be attended by any child who is gifted or has a 504. I asked about the GATE program and the lead counselor actually laughed. I have to distribute the 504 to the teachers ( allergies) and discovered administration did not give it to them .There are fights all the time. The administration only communicates with the head of the booster club- Pride, especially during emergencies. It's pretty much a clique with toxic parent WhatsApp groups. Working with the counselors is an absolute nightmare, they will try to discourage your child from any challenging class; I have examples but the school would know who I am and potentially take it out on my child. Additionally, the magnet is not self contained. In the tours they sell it like it is a school within a school with attention for your advanced learner. But, it is really just 1800 kids that go to school together and you are just a number. Lots of MAGA families. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRISON.Parent Review2mo ago - Canyon Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCanyon Elementary is an amazing school. If you’re looking for a great education and a strong parent community, this is your spot. For public school, I could not be more impressed with the dedication the teachers and teacher aids, not to mention resource teachers provide. This school has PE, music, drama, art and resource teachers. Smaller class sizes, field trips and incredible events. An Olympian comes to speak each year, etc. We just love it here and have made family friends for life.Parent Review5mo ago - Palisades Charter High School
- 9-12
- Charter
- 2920 Students
9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSchool consistently violates section 504 and does not adhere to the rules. This is an independent charter school who will not spend a dime if they can for a 504 qualified student. They claim 'academic excellence", while suppressing the ones that need the assistance. They specifically ignore girls with ADHD learning disabilities and refuse accommodations. You think they would have learned the first time they violated it. They just create new ways to violate it and discriminate.Parent Review1mo ago
