Welcome to The Palisades! If you're searching for the perfect move-in ready home offering an ocean view and room to grow, your search is over! Set above the street, this 1950's classic will remind you of “grandma's house” – with all the warmth and charm included! As you arrive, you'll see new desert landscape with a clean and contemporary look. As you enter, you'll be taken by all the natural light flooding the space and the ocean view before you! Catalina island beckons and as you continue your gaze to the east the lights of the hill will brighten your evenings. The spacious and comfortable living areas feature pristine original refinished oak hardwood floors, and large picture windows perfectly frame the ocean view. The vintage kitchen still has the original cabinets, complete with the scrollwork and rounded corner shelves, and even a built-in dinette/breakfast nook! A new stainless-steel range and hood have been installed for your convenience. Off the kitchen you'll find the laundry room and half bath.
There are three generous bedrooms, the largest of which offers direct access to the beautiful backyard. This could also make a great family room or den! The main full bathroom is also original, but in great condition! The backyard is equally inviting, and offers near complete privacy for outdoor entertaining. A spacious deck, perfect for al fresco dining, overlooks the well-manicured yard. A paver patio adds to the outdoor appeal, and mature landscaping makes it feel like a true oasis. The property also includes a 2-car garage at the end of a long driveway, ensuring ample parking space and storage as well. Behind the garage is a large storage room or workshop for the hobby enthusiast! This home has just been updated with new vinyl flooring in the kitchen and bathrooms, new light fixtures, new door hardware, new Decora style plugs and switches, a new “drip” system in the front yard and more! There's still a bit more to do, but you can do so at your own pace. This charming home is just 1-1/2 blocks from Paseo Del Mar, a short jaunt to The Corner Store, Friendship and Point Fermin parks, The Korean Bell and more! The new West Harbor development is expected to open in early 2025, breathing new life into our amazing seaside town! Don't miss this amazing opportunity!
