This two-story Classic Spanish home offers a dramatic two- story turret that rises and sheds light into the foyer with a flowing stairwell that is graceful and exquisite in its design.

The Upper level offers two bedrooms, one currently used as an office with windows on two sides with sunshine and breezes streaming in the casement windows. The main bedroom extolls a sitting area for quiet respite & serenity. The veranda with the cozy Pergola covering provides shade- just off the dining room and leads to another outdoor area giving a vibe of an Oasis with its lush walls of green & splashed with colors of Bougainvillea and various other foliage. A charming fountain when running completes the outdoor ambience. This is a larger than average lot for Belmont Shore.

This property also provides: Double Garage, Rear Alley Access, and one block to the Beach Village Community of Belmont Shore offering Shops & Restaurants. Literally a few blocks to the beach where one can enjoy a 7-mile bike and pedestrian path.
