Positioned just moments from the coveted shops and dining of Montana Avenue, this west-facing residence delivers the privacy and presence of a home in one of Santa Monica's most sought-after, walkable neighborhoods. Tucked within an intimate building, this front facing residence offers a rare direct-entry attached garage (an exceptional convenience in this location) along with low HOA dues that include earthquake insurance. Spanning over 1,700 square feet, the interior is both timeless and striking, defined by rich hardwood floors, surround sound speakers, a romantic energy, classic crown molding, and sound reducing quiet windows throughout that keep the space peaceful despite the prime location. The main level unfolds with thought, centered around a spacious living area, including a wood burning fireplace, that transitions seamlessly into a formal dining space. French doors open to a private lush patio, creating a true indoor-outdoor experience. Finished with brick pavers and a wall-mounted fountain, this space feels serene and private, ideal for al fresco dining, entertaining, or a quiet morning retreat. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with custom white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a large window that frames the greenery beyond, bringing in natural light and a sense of calm. Upstairs, the bedrooms are generously scaled, including an airy loft with a skylight and direct access to a private rooftop deck with sweeping neighborhood views. An inspiring space perfectly suited for a studio, executive home office, or guest retreat open to the sky. Opportunities like this are rare: a spacious, west-facing home in a boutique complex, ideally located north of Wilshire, just moments from Montana Avenue.
