Upstairs a wall of glass looking out to the Santa Monica Mountains, opens to the ocean breeze and a balcony that spans the entire width of the building. An open kitchen is highlighted by warm natural wood cabinetry, professional quality stainless appliances and granite counters. Down the skylit hallway to the bedrooms, exposed beams and ducting reinforce the open and loft-like feeling of the unit while a sumptuous travertine en-suite primary bath with oversized soaking tub and double vanity pampers you in spa-like comfort.
