Wrapped in windows and light on all four sides, this expansive Santa Monica condo lives like a single-family home. This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence offers over 2, 000 square feet of bright and open living space, designed for flexibility, comfort and room to grow. //Set within an intimate six-unit complex, this condo is one of only two units in the front building, and it spans the entire first floor with no shared walls. Enjoy windows and outdoor spaces on all sides, providing exceptional natural light, privacy, and airflow. Step into a welcoming layout all on one level, where high ceilings and dedicated yet open spaces lead you through a classic, warm, and elegant home. //The heart of the home is a large living room that opens seamlessly to the dining area and one of the expansive patios - ideal for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The contemporary kitchen offers plenty of space atop granite counters for the most savvy home chefs, along with all stainless steel appliances and a brand new refrigerator. A flexible bonus room adjacent to the kitchen adds functionality and charm, offering the perfect nook for a popcorn-and-TV lounge, kids' playroom, or a work from home zone. //The bedrooms include a front-facing room perfect for office or guests with convenient adjacent bathroom and a large secondary bedroom with balcony, courtyard view and en-suite bath. The generously-sized primary suite with a walk-in closet and enormous spa-like tub also leads to the balcony that overlooks the lush center courtyard. //Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, central air and heat, and a massive private storage room in the garage below - big enough to accommodate gym equipment or all your adventure gear. Parking is a breeze with two side-by-side gated spaces directly beneath the unit in a garage shared with just one neighbor. //Located on a gorgeous tree-lined street, this home places you central to everything - top-rated Santa Monica schools, local parks, grocery stores, and the best of the city's shopping, dining, and cultural offerings. //Whether you're seeking more room to grow or simply a turnkey home in one of LA's most desirable coastal communities, this one checks every box and more.
