Incredible value north of Montana Avenue in Santa Monica. This well-maintained three-bedroom home sits on an oversized 8,700-square-foot lot just moments from some of the Westside's most beloved destinations, including Brentwood Country Mart, Montana Avenue retail, and the heart of Brentwood. The property retains much of its original character, with hardwood floors, period details, and a floor plan that has stood the test of time. The kitchen has been thoughtfully refreshed while preserving the home's overall charm and character. Outside, the beautifully maintained grounds feature lush landscaping and a pool, creating a true retreat-like setting. For buyers seeking an opportunity north of Montana under $3M, this is an exceptional offering.
