The bathrooms feature modern white shaker vanities and updated fixtures, the kitchen includes brand new appliances, and the detached ADU is fully renovated with contemporary finishes. The home is in mint, move-in-ready condition with newly refinished floors and updated systems throughout.

The property features an impressive rooftop deck offering rare 360-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, and the San Gabriel Mountains, providing an elite space for entertaining.
A fully renovated detached guest home with a full kitchen and bathroom provides excellent versatility for rental income, a private home office, or multi-generational living.
With a lot size of approximately 3,206 square feet, the property has limited traditional yard space, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking expansive outdoor play areas.
The recent price increase to $2.2M, following a significant appreciation from its 2023 sale price of $1.725M, may present challenges for appraisal valuations and buyer price sensitivity.
