Property Description
Set along one of Santa Monica's most coveted palm tree-lined streets, just steps from Ocean Avenue, 143 Marguerita Avenue presents an exceptional opportunity for a traditional estate with ocean views, generous proportions, and remarkable versatility. The six-bedroom, six-bathroom residence spans 5,898 square feet on an expansive 14,727 square-foot lot, with a gated motor court creating a private sense of arrival. Inside, a dramatic foyer with a staircase opens through grand archways to formal living and dining spaces, where oversized windows fill the interiors with natural light and hardwood floors lend warmth throughout.

A lap pool and hot tub are complemented by a separate pool house with a sauna and shower, while a pergola-covered patio provides an inviting setting for al fresco dining. At the rear of the property, a detached guest house with its own entrance and garage offers added flexibility for guests, work, or extended stays, while the main residence includes a three car subterranean garage with ample storage. Moments from the beach, Palisades Park, and Santa Monica's renowned shopping and dining, this distinctive property is ready for its next chapter, offering an extraordinary canvas to reimagine and make entirely your own.
