This Contemporary Townhouse represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at $1,450,000—positioned well above the $1,282,874 Fair Market Value by -13%. While the price reflects a premium, the property offers a Fair Condition Rating and a generous 1,920 sqft layout in a prime Silicon Beach location. Families benefit from proximity to top-rated schools like Cowan Avenue Elementary, though the high $1,025 HOA fee warrants careful financial planning. This is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking a lifestyle-focused residence.
