Property is move-in ready.
The property is in move-in ready condition and reflects high-end maintenance and selective modern updates. While built in 1980, the home features a chef's kitchen with premium stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, along with at least one newly renovated bathroom. The grand architectural elements, such as the spiral staircase, beamed ceilings, and stone flooring, are well-preserved. It falls into the 'good' category rather than 'excellent' because it is not a brand-new construction or a total contemporary gut-renovation, but it remains a luxury residence with no immediate repairs required.
Elementary School: Montemalaga Elementary School (10/10). Middle School: Palos Verdes Intermediate School (9/10). High School: Palos Verdes Peninsula High School (10/10).
The property captures breathtaking, unobstructed ocean and sunset views from nearly every room across all levels, a premier feature that commands high value in Palos Verdes Estates.
