The Space:
The home’s brightly painted exterior is an early indication of all the fun to come, expertly landscaped with lush native flora. The back yard will be your go-to spot for entertainment and connectivity, reclining on the outdoor sofa with a good book while your furry friends stretch their paws and run about. Grill up a delicious lunch on the charcoal grill, served tableside at the table for 4 offering the option for both sun and shade. Keep up with all your fitness goals in the garage while the kids challenge one another to endless hours of video games.

Located in a quiet yet vibrant neighborhood, a wide variety of activities are on-demand and located within walking distance of your front door, as are cafés, restaurants, shopping, evening bars, and even a farmer’s market to stock up on fresh local ingredients for your evening meal. Retro Row is a 15-minute walk north, a small business district celebrating independence and diversity, filled with vintage boutiques and kitschy wares. If you’re up for a day trip, the famed city of Los Angeles is less than 40 miles north. If you prefer to stay closer to home, pack up your blankets and a picnic lunch and make the 15-minute walk down to the sandy shoreline to enjoy a full day in the endless California sun.

Step indoors to find open, brightly lit spaces, inviting you to relax among contemporary furnishings accented by chic and sophisticated décor to maximize your downtime. Sink into plush sofa or armchair seating with chaise lounge in the living room while you stream all your favorite entertainment on the mounted smart TV. The sunroom is the perfect spot to lose yourself in the pages of a good book or steal a quiet afternoon nap before the evening’s festivities.

The fully equipped kitchen is a chef’s delight, showcasing stainless steel appliances, glossy stone counters, and sleek white cabinetry stocked with all the cookware and dining ware you need to whip up delicious homecooked creations.
