About 12 Corniche Drive A
Shhh! Don't tell anyone that there is affordable real estate in Ritz Pointe! Ocean breezes and sunlight flood this ground level recently updated beach condo unit in the prestigious gate-guarded community. With just a 1 mile scenic walk down the walking path to Salt Creek Beach and a panoramic ocean view spa, this is the perfect getaway! Inside you'll find crisp, white paint, 5.5-inch baseboards, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The fireplace has been updated with a stone facade. The pony wall has been removed to open up the unit. New door casings and an updated bathroom remodel modernize this condo. Plantation shutters throughout. A clean, white kitchen completes the interior with quartz countertops and a large ceramic sink. The master bedroom is spacious with a sliding glass door to your private patio and the laundry room. There is a huge walk-in closet with a shelving unit installed floor to ceiling. The way this unit is situated along the corridor, it gets breezes from the ocean and ample sunlight that many other units do not. A great clubhouse, workout gym, beautiful pool & spa area with modern resort-style furniture, along with 2 other spa locations are among the amenities here. The panoramic ocean view spa area is absolutely STUNNING! Watch 4 different firework displays there on the 4th! Walk through your easement through Monarch Beach Golf Course and multi-million dollar homes to the ocean. The HOA is always improving our little secret. Shhh.
