Property Description

With a truly irreplaceable ocean view, landmark designation, and an extraordinary Mills Act property tax reduction, 401 Ocean presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Santa Monica's coastal legacy. Rich in local history, this Craftsman-style residence was originally built in 1910 by renowned architect Robert Farquhar and thoughtfully restored and modernized in 2021. As a designated historic landmark, the home benefits from an active and transferable Mills Act contract, offering a significant property tax reduction of up to approximately 80% -- an exceptional advantage in today's market. One of only two townhouse-style residences, the home lives with the privacy and presence of a single-family retreat, complete with a private entrance, side yard, multiple terraces, a two-car garage, and integrated home automation with surround sound throughout. Set just beyond the bluff, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean and Santa Monica Mountains unfold across the main and upper levels, all just moments from the beach, promenade, and pier. Inside, radiant natural light pours through expansive windows, illuminating exquisite millwork, wide-plank white oak floors, and refined modern finishes that elevate the home's timeless coastal character. The open-concept main level flows effortlessl
