This is one of the best "end unit" & incredible location townhomes in Santa Monica. Nestled north of Wilshire and two blocks from Montana Ave, this radiant 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom townhome feels like a single-family home. Featuring hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, skylights, crown moldings, and an abundance of natural light, every corner of this home is filled with warmth and charm. The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a private balcony, a walk-in closet, a jacuzzi tub, and a steam shower. The kitchen is a chef's dream with stainless steel Miele appliances, granite countertops, Italian porcelain stone floors, and an eat-in breakfast area add a touch of elegance and the dining room layout is perfect for gatherings, with French doors opening to a charming patio. The expansive private patio wraps around the first floor, lushly landscaped with self-watering planters, retractable sunshades, and a BBQ area. An attached oversized 2-car private garage offers direct entry to the unit, with an additional third covered parking spot. The garage has ample storage, shelving and a washer/dryer to complete this lovely home. Located in the Franklin Elementary School catchment area.

Condition Rating
Good
This property, built in 1980, has clearly undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, particularly in key areas. The kitchen is a standout with modern Miele stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and Italian porcelain stone floors, indicating a significant update likely within the last 5-15 years. The primary bathroom also boasts luxurious features like a jacuzzi tub and steam shower. Hardwood floors throughout, crown moldings, and recessed lighting contribute to a contemporary and well-maintained aesthetic. While the property's original build year is older, the described and visible updates bring it well into 'move-in ready' condition with minimal wear and tear. The only factor preventing an 'Excellent' score is the noted 'Building Age' and the 'Potential Lack of Central Air Conditioning,' suggesting that while the visible renovations are top-tier, some core systems may not be entirely new or meet the absolute latest standards across all components.

Cons

Potential Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a drawback during warmer months, especially for a property built in 1980.
Building Age: Built in 1980, while updated, some core building systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may be original or older, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades.
