First time on the market in more than 40 years, this Venice 2/1 beach home is warm, inviting and allows lots of natural light. Located on a corner lot, the home shows that it really has been well cared for to include many features: teak accents, textured ceiling with recessed lighting, comfortable full bath, complete kitchen with separate laundry area, and a single car attached garage. Play croquet in the private enclosed backyard with 2 storage sheds, mature trees and plants, with an area to barbeque. Decorated in a tropical theme reminiscent of the 'islands', the cozy home has a spacious liv rm with brick trimmed fireplace, hardwoods and crown molding in each of the bedrooms, newer windows and coverings, and newer furnace. Just west of Abbott Kinney with its trendy shops and restaurants, blocks to the ocean and beach, and close to thriving Marina del Rey with harbor, waterside restaurants and newer shops..
