Description
Experience the best of both worlds in this beautifully appointed townhome; where coastal living meets the warmth and character of a mountain cabin. Just moments from the beach, this inviting retreat offers sweeping ocean views (on clear days you can see from Malibu to Catalina Island) abundant natural light, vaulted wood ceilings and a peaceful, tucked-away feel. Kitchen and bathrooms have been extensively remodeled recently and bring a new level of sophistication to the property. The entire interior has been freshly painted and still boasts rich wood accents. Newer windows, deck and flooring just add to the allure of this home. Ocean view living room has a fireplace for those brisk South Bay evenings! The two spacious bedrooms are on the same floor, each with its own bathroom; perfect for families, roommates or someone beginning their family. In addition to the two full bedrooms there is a flex space located above the kitchen (not included in square footage) that can act as an office or a relaxing yoga/workout/meditation area. Direct access to your private 2 car garage. Plus one guest parking spot shared by the HOA. Additionally, a shared, secure storage area provides the perfect spot for all the gear that comes with an active coastal lifestyle—bikes, beach toys, surfboards, etc. Close to parks, award winning Hermosa Beach schools, restaurants and shops. A private coastal escape that feels worlds away from the ordinary but close to everything!
