Located at 1418 Fifth Street in Santa Monica, California, this single-story unit offers a well-designed layout with a cohesive modern aesthetic throughout. The living areas feature light wood flooring that contributes to a bright, open atmosphere, while recessed and track lighting provide functional illumination across the space. The kitchen is outfitted in a galley configuration with dark espresso cabinetry contrasted by light quartz countertops. Stainless steel appliances—including a gas range, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher—are complemented by glass-front upper cabinets and a window that draws in natural light. The clean lines and efficient layout make it a highly functional space. The bedrooms are carpeted for comfort and include windows that allow natural light to filter in. At least one bedroom features a built-in closet with frosted glass sliding doors and integrated shelving and hanging rods, offering practical storage solutions. The bathrooms are finished with light ceramic tile flooring and include dark-toned vanity cabinetry with light countertops and a large mirror.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
