Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Santa Monica Location: Situated on Ocean Avenue, offering unparalleled access to Santa Monica's most desirable beaches, hiking/biking trails, entertainment, shopping, and dining.
Extensive Luxury Building Amenities: The building provides best-in-class services including Valet, Doormen, 24-hour Concierge, a luxurious Fitness Center, and an ocean view Pool and Spa.
Designer-Done & Fully Updated Interior: The unit is meticulously updated with high-end finishes, wide-plank wood flooring, a custom kitchen with Bosch appliances and stone countertops, and luxurious Calacatta and Carrara marble bathrooms.
Opportunity for Expansion: The rare opportunity to purchase this unit with the adjacent unit (508P) allows for a combined 4 beds, 4 baths, and 2,444 sqft, ideal for multi-generational living or expanded space.
Appealing Views & Indoor/Outdoor Living: The unit boasts verdant views of palm trees, greenery, and hills through walls of glass, complemented by a peaceful balcony perfect for outdoor dining and embracing indoor/outdoor living.

Cons

Very High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $1,773.50 is substantial and adds significantly to the overall cost of ownership.
Lack of Direct Ocean Views from Unit: Despite its Ocean Avenue address, the unit's views are described as greenery and hills, with the ocean view only available from the building's pool, which may disappoint buyers expecting direct ocean frontage.
Compact Square Footage for Price Point: At 1,216 sqft for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, the interior space might be considered modest for a luxury condominium in this highly desirable Santa Monica market and price range.
