Property Description

A romantic European-inspired villa in Santa Monica's coveted North of Montana neighborhood, 215 23rd Street feels transportive from the moment you arrive, set beyond a gated driveway with mature landscaping, curved balconies, arched windows, and hand-forged ironwork creating a distinct sense of old-world charm. Inside, the home unfolds with a richly layered point of view, where marble floors, sweeping staircases, crystal chandeliers, ornate fireplaces, carved details, and garden-facing doors give each space its own sense of character. The formal living areas are intimate and expressive, balancing grand architectural details with a warmth that feels deeply personal. A wood-paneled library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a stone fireplace, and built-in window seating offers one of the home's most memorable spaces, while the kitchen continues the European sensibility with decorative tilework, stone surfaces, copper accents, and a sunlit breakfast area surrounded by custom wallcoverings and garden views. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, the home offers generous accommodations while maintaining the charm and individuality found throughout. Bedrooms open to light, greenery, and balcony moments, while the baths feature marble finishes, sculptural vanities, and decorative lighting. Outdoor spaces extend the character of the home with multiple terraces, intimate seating areas, and a striking exterior spiral staircase that adds to the property's storybook quality. Moments from Montana Avenue, Brentwood Country Mart, Palisades Park, the beach, and the Westside's most beloved dining and shopping, 215 23rd Street offers a compelling foundation for a buyer who wants to preserve its European charm, restore it over time, or reimagine it entirely.
