Here's a wonderful opportunity to purchase a newer-built home located just 2 1/2 short blocks from the ocean bluffs in the very desirable Palisades area. Originally built in 1951, this fabulous home underwent a ground-up transformation in 2000 & offers all the modern conveniences you would expect from a newer home. The attractive exterior offers a Mediterranean feel with Adobe color stucco walls, red tile roof, wrought iron railings & lush landscaping. Main level of this special home was deigned with a "great room" concept that combines the living room, dining area & kitchen in one space. The spacious chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, large island with breakfast bar, granite counters, stainless steel appliances & a walk-in pantry. The living room has a soaring cathedral ceiling & plenty of room for the dining table. Finishing off the main level is a large bedroom (12 ft x 13 ft) currently used as a den, a full bathroom and direct access to the garage. Upstairs you will find the incredible 520+ sq ft master suite. It features a sitting area, walk-in closet and sliding glass doors that opens up to a balcony where a view of the ocean and Catalina can be enjoyed. The exquisite master bath features a double vanity and large shower. On this level you will also find two additional bedrooms that are larger than most master suites (12 ft x 16 1/2 ft and 13 ft x 14 ft) and a full bath to service those bedrooms. Additional features include tile floors, plush textured carpeting, custom window coverings, recessed lighting, central heat & air conditioning and dual-pane windows. The fabulous backyard offers a huge covered patio and a large grassy area flanked by trees and shrubs to create a super private space for entertaining family and friends. The two car attached garage has a finished interior and there is driveway parking for another 2 cars. Location?
