2048 Palisades Dr

Set in the serene Palisades Highlands, this single-level end-unit in Vista Catalina offers privacy, views, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan with many upgrades. A verdant fieldstone path leads to a double-door entry. Once inside, the entry gallery flows to a spacious living room with a fireplace, built-ins, and inspiring westerly views of the Santa Monica Mountains. The formal dining room easily seats 10, and the fully remodeled kitchen opens to a sun-drenched family room with breakfast area. The primary suite includes a massive walk-in closet, renovated bath and cozy fireplace. The 2 other bedrooms are also ensuite, one of which opens to a sunny atrium - the perfect spot for lounging, reading, or container gardening. Other outdoor spaces abound, including a large view deck off the living and family rooms that leads to a private backyard brimming with rose bushes and fruit trees. From the backyard, a lockable gate leads to hiking paths with peek-a-boo views of the Pacific. The association's tranquil pool and spa provide yet another space for relaxing in a beautiful outdoor setting, and the adjacent Palisades Drive Park offers a playground, picnic area, and softball field available only to Vista Catalina residents and nearby neighbors. Other amenities of this meticulous home include hardwood floors, recessed lighting, a separate laundry room, automatic sprinklers, a private 2-car garage with direct entry, ample guest parking, and access to award-winning Pacific Palisades schools.
