Gracing the oceanfront in guard-gated Surfside is a truly turn-key home for a full-time or part-time lover of all things sun and sand. Spanning three gorgeous floors and a fourth floor disguised as a rooftop deck, this home can serve as an epic entertainer’s playground or a quiet escape to suntan the days away. The first floor offers an opportunity for the best beach entertaining room ever with a full kitchen, family room area — right on the sand — and a bedroom and bathroom. Main living is on the second floor, which maximizes the unobstructed Catalina Island views and up and down the coast views from Long Beach to Huntington Beach. The juxtaposition of wood, stone, and metal in various forms creates a unique, interesting, and fabulous texture experience. Completely remodeled and updated, the kitchen and family room area will delight a chef at any level. There is a fabulous additional media room on the main level with a projector for those intimate movie nights. The 3rd level primary suite allows the homeowner to wake up to a sunrise and go to bed with a sunset — all overlooking the Pacific Ocean. A strategically placed soaking tub allows you to soak your cares away with a full ocean view. Two additional bedrooms, bathroom and laundry complete this level. The showstopping experience continues with the completely redone rooftop deck with a combination of ipe and turf. Soak in the tub, sun on the raised patio, warm up with the fire pit, or throw a steak on the barbeque. The rooftop deck is the perfect setting for privacy on your essentially, private beach.
