Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

What’s a summer vacation without days on the sand, basking in the sunlight, and watching the waves crash? Luckily for you, this Mar Vista home is only a short drive away from the irresistible beaches of Venice and Santa Monica – so you’re always close to the fun. Designed with pearly white walls that create an instantly uplifting and serene atmosphere, this house feels like a welcome escape from everyday life. Dark wood accent furniture, monochrome wall art, ornamental plants, and fireplaces add an element of homely charm to help you get cosy around the home. The large arched window in the main living room will make lazy afternoons doing little more than lounging about in the natural light a real treat. Two of the bedrooms have their own balconies and outside, you’ll find a secluded patio furnished with even more lounge chairs as well as a dining area, so you can always be sure of a quiet spot in which to unwind and sip cocktails. Close to some of California's most famous spots, this home's location gives you access to the city of Los Angeles and everything it has to offer, with just a twenty–minute drive.
