801 Ocean Ave

A six-story condominium building completed in 1977, located on Ocean Avenue at the bluffs above Santa Monica Beach. The property is a mid-rise, boutique-style complex primarily composed of two-bedroom residences with plans that emphasize ocean-facing living spaces. Exterior architecture is traditional mid‑late 20th century concrete construction with broad balconies and large windows to capture coastal views. Units show a mix of original and fully renovated interiors: features commonly include spacious primary suites with walk-in closets, formal dining areas, decorative fireplaces, recessed lighting, wide-plank or engineered wood floors, built-in storage and in-unit laundry. The community offers a broad amenity set scaled to coastal living — a heated pool and expansive pool deck, spa, fitness room, barbecue and social/rec room — plus on-site management, secured access and guest parking. Practical conveniences include subterranean side-by-side deeded parking and additional private storage per unit; HOA dues often cover earthquake insurance, water and gas. The building sits directly across from Palisades Park with immediate access to beach stairs, and is within easy walking distance of Montana Avenue’s shops and restaurants, creating a lifestyle oriented around outdoor recreation, promenading and neighborhood retail.
