More Insights

Built in 1954 (71 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1954, this property has undergone a comprehensive and high-quality 'reimagining' into a coastal contemporary home. The description highlights 'bespoke walnut cabinetry,' 'top tier stainless steel appliances,' and a 'spa inspired bath' with a 'brand new custom vanity.' The images confirm a sleek, modern design throughout, with light wood flooring, contemporary light fixtures, and pristine finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features high-end integrated appliances, stylish backsplashes, and modern cabinetry. Bathrooms are equally updated with modern vanities, fixtures, and a freestanding tub in the primary suite. The inclusion of a whole-house filtration system, battery backup, and EV charger further indicates recent, significant upgrades. All components appear new or virtually new, reflecting a recent extensive renovation that meets current luxury standards.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 2.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description emphasizes coastal breezes but does not mention a cooling system, which could be a comfort concern during hotter periods for some buyers.
Absence of a Pool/Spa: For a luxury property in Santa Monica at this price point, the lack of a private pool or spa might be a missed amenity for some high-end buyers expecting such features.
Specific View Limitations: While offering pleasant 'treetop and canyon views,' the property does not boast the expansive ocean or city panoramic views that are often a premium feature in the Santa Monica luxury market.
