Description

This penthouse gem is an exceptional combination of a stylish remodel and an ideal location. No expense was spared in transforming this condo into the elegant home it is today. The kitchen features a porcelain center island, doubling as a dining area. Beautiful white oak cabinets and top of the line appliances with custom lighting fixtures complete the look of the designer kitchen. The open floor plan gracefully combines the living room and the kitchen, both opening to the balcony, ideal for an al fresco dinner as the sun sets. There are white oak wide plank floors in the kitchen and entryway, wool carpet in the rest of the condo. The primary suite features a wall of built-in closets and drawers for ample storage. The primary bath has a tub/ shower, marble counter top, and custom cabinets. A washer/dryer combo is tucked under the sink in the primary bath. The second bedroom doubles as an office or guest room. The unit has high ceilings and is infused with light. Central heat and air have been installed. Located 5 blocks from the bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this mid century condo is within easy access of both Montana Avenue and Ocean Ave with their restaurants and shops.

    "it is a good area to walk a dog but it is not safe because of a lot of mentally ill people living on the curbs or at Reeds Park. it is a shame that this area used to be very nice, but now it is deteriorating very fast. over all it is not safe to walk after sunset."

  • Susan B.
    "Fresh Air from the Pacific Ocean, wide streets, trees, flowers and friendly neighbors. Closeness to all shops, restaurants and public transportation makes it easy to get around to shop. Cleanliness of neighborhood. There is city noise like occasional garbage trucks and ambulances during the day, but not in the evening or night. Safe. Sightings of occasional harmless homeless person might be disturbing to some."
