Walk out your door and find yourself on the world-famous Santa Monica Beach, bike path and boardwalk. Relax indoors with ocean views in the master bedroom, kitchen, living room and family room or sit outside on one of the three beachfront balconies.

This open floor plan architectural home has appeared in countless publications and media, including LA Magazine and notably was featured in the intro to Grand Theft Auto V! The Morris House offers 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a sauna, family room or "kids living room" and den. The den was built as a recording studio with mixing room and doubles as a dance studio.
