Welcome to life on Montana Avenue, where convenience meets a quiet, tucked-away retreat in one of Santa Monica's most desirable neighborhoods. Set within a timeless Colonial-style building, you're welcomed by a grand lobby before making your way to this southwest-facing unit, filled with beautiful afternoon light and offering a peaceful setting away from the street. The spacious living room flows seamlessly into the dining area and an updated kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, newer cabinetry, and quartz countertops, creating an ideal layout for both everyday living and entertaining. Down the hallway, the expansive primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with dual vanities and three closets. The second bedroom is bright and inviting, with pleasant views overlooking the pool. Thoughtfully positioned just off the living room, the third bedroom is set apart from the main sleeping areas, making it perfect as a home office, guest room, or creative studio. Brand-new carpet runs throughout the home, adding a fresh, cohesive feel. Residents enjoy a full suite of amenities, including a large pool, fitness center, sauna, clubhouse, and convenient laundry rooms on each floor. The unit also includes two-car tandem parking. Just outside your door, Montana Avenue's beloved cafes, boutiques, and daily conveniences await - only two blocks from Primo Passo and moments from other local favorites, as well as just five blocks from Palisades Park - offering the best of Santa Monica living in a location that's both vibrant and effortlessly livable.
