Perfectly perched atop the coveted Hermosa Hills, this charming single-story residence features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a coveted corner lot, and a delightful peek-a-boo ocean view - all wrapped in timeless seaside charm.

Bathed in abundant natural light, the home exudes warmth and character throughout.
