Enjoy spectacular evening sunsets & cool ocean breezes as the late afternoon sun lights up every room with a soothing surreal glow. Catalina Island commands the view with whales, fishing boats & seabirds providing hours of entertainment. First time ever on the market, this charming home has been lovingly cared for.

This rare and perfect location is yours to enjoy the outdoors, hiking & biking the White Point Nature Preserve & dog park, tai chi at the park, visiting the Korean Friendship Bell, & historic Fort MacArthur, all while being minutes away from world class golf at Terranea Resort, horseback riding in Palos Verdes Estates, sailing, paddleboarding & kayaking, & just 30 minutes from LA International Airport. This rare offering is located in a special enclave of ocean edge tucked-away homes sharing tight bonds & an often-forgotten neighborliness. Step inside & feel the beachy vibes: freshly painted interiors, new textured carpeting, & a sun-filled living/dining area featuring a mirrored wall that beautifully reflects the natural light & ocean views. A long driveway leads to an inviting brick front porch, welcoming you into a home that balances comfort and charm. The bright/tasteful kitchen includes a breakfast bar and nook, flowing into a warm family room with beautiful built-in bookcases & a gas fireplace for cozy conversations. The family room overlooks a lushly landscaped & expansive fully-fenced bricked patio & yard — ideal for entertaining & creating perfect memories. On the main level, you'll find two spacious bedrooms & a full bath with sunken tub. Upstairs, the private primary suite offers captivating ocean views, dual closets, an alcove for quiet reading retreat, and an ensuite ¾ bath. Bonus: The separate guest house (not included in sq footage shown) above the detached 2-car garage features a large deck with breathtaking ocean views & a full bath — ideal for added income as a potential ADU or Airbnb rental.
