17711 Margate St

A low-rise, single-story condominium complex built in 1973, composed of stacked one-level residences and several third-floor penthouse-style units offering elevated views. Units are predominantly two-bedroom layouts with expanded, home-like floor plans rather than compact apartment footprints. Architectural character is mid-century with vaulted and two-story ceiling variations in some homes, double-door entries, and a mix of materials including hardwood and engineered wood flooring, stone or travertine accents, and traditional fireplaces. Interiors emphasize open living and entertaining: formal dining rooms or flexible den spaces, built-in wet bars, sizable kitchens with breakfast bars, pantries and updated stone counters in many units, recessed lighting, walk-in closets, and in-unit laundry. Private outdoor spaces are common—balconies or large patios attached to living areas. Storage rooms and assigned side-by-side subterranean parking spaces are typical. The small-to-medium sized complex is gated and professionally maintained, set within lush, mature landscaping and courtyard-style circulation. On-site shared amenities are resort-oriented: a landscaped pool, heated spa, indoor spa area, and a recreation/club room. HOA dues cover common maintenance and utilities elements and often include earthquake insurance. The property sits close to Ventura Boulevard retail, dining, Trader Joe’s and transit corridors, with direct, short access to the 101 freeway and nearby 405 connections.
