Rare shovel-ready development opportunity in Sunset Mesa with RTI plans and an issued building permit for a thoughtfully designed new 2,698 SF single-level coastal residence. Set on an approximately 7,076 SF lot, the approved plans feature 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 2-car garage, a pool, and beautiful ocean and mountain views. With much of the design and permitting process already completed, 3709 Castlerock Road offers a significant head start toward creating a sophisticated new home in one of the area's most desirable coastal settings. Ideally located just moments from the beach, Getty Villa, hiking trails, Pacific Palisades, Santa Monica, and Malibu, this is an exceptional offering for an end user, builder, or investor seeking a streamlined path to building. Approved plans, survey, and geotechnical reports are available for review.
Light, bright cheery and all that jazz! The inviting courtyard entry leads to a tastefully updated three bedroom Sunset Mesa home with stone flooring, raised ceilings with skylights in the dining area, built in breakfast banquette, cozy den, and chef's ocean view kitchen with Wolf range and Carrere marble countertops. The master suite has a fabulous bathroom and an entire wall of built-in closets. The second bathroom has also been updated with custom tiles. The spacious living room includes built-in shelves, a fireplace and French doors opening to a beautifully landscaped grassy yard framed by a brick garden wall and rows of flowers. The flow of the home is conducive to everyday living or entertaining a crowd. The Queen's Necklace, ocean and mountain views complete the perfect package to tie a bow around.
