The home
About 1624 W Oceanfront
Quintessential oceanfront beach home in turn-key condition. A wonderful opportunity to own between the piers and on the sand along one of Southern California’s most favored stretches of shoreline. Zoned as a duplex this property has an owner's unit with a single family "vibe", while at the same time benefitting from a rental unit below. Generously proportioned the turn-key three bedroom, three bath upper-level home is accented by abundant millwork, vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and new carpet and paint throughout. It features two fireplaces, an eat-in kitchen nook, separate laundry room, elevator, and spectacular roof top terrace with spa, BBQ area and panoramic 360-degree views up-and-down the coastline, and capturing bay front and city light views, as well. The spacious lower level two bedroom, two bath unit has been remodeled and features a cozy brick-accented fireplace, private laundry and a large oceanfront terrace adjacent to the boardwalk. Central air conditioning, a dumbwaiter, and a four car parking complete this fabulous R-2 lifestyle opportunity. Ideally suited as either a short-term rental income property, or perfect for an owner/user to enjoy the large upper unit while benefitting from rental income below. Located in the heart of Balboa, across from Marina Park and just a short bike ride from myriad restaurants, shops, the Fun Zone and the Balboa Island Ferry.
