701 Ocean Avenue PHE, Santa Monica, CA 90402

Description

There are views, and then there are views. Penthouse E at 701 Ocean Avenue is a rare double unit corner Penthouse. It delivers what few properties in Los Angeles can, a sweeping panorama that stretches from the white water breaking along the sand at Palisades Park, north to the sweeping vistas of Pacific Palisades and Malibu, and south along one of the most coveted coastlines in the world. A gracious entry foyer sets the tone offering an elegant welcome for guests. Two en suite bedrooms and a dedicated laundry room flank the entry, while an open kitchen and dining room create an effortless flow for hosting. The living room anchored by a fireplace and framed by floor-to-ceiling glass sliders opens to both a front and side balcony, blurring the line between interior elegance and the open sky. Privately situated on the opposite wing, the beyond-spacious primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself. Its private ocean-facing balcony, generous en suite bath, and dual walk-in closets speak to a life lived without compromise. Throughout, all-new hardwood floors, fresh carpet, and crisp interior paint offer the rare option to move in immediately or to reimagine the space into a bespoke showpiece. Four dedicated side by side parking spaces, ample guest parking, and private storage round out the practical luxury. The building has just completed an extensive renovation, including a new roof, plumbing infrastructure, and a resort-caliber amenity rooftop deck featuring a brand-new pool, spa, private cabanas, and BBQ area. All assessments have been paid in full by the seller a meaningful and rare offering at this level. With 24-hour concierge service, on-site management, a well-equipped fitness center, and a full banquet room and kitchen, the building delivers first-class living at every turn. North of Montana, moments from world-class dining, boutique shopping, and the best beaches, this is Santa Monica at its absolute finest.
