Signal Hill's Best Condo? Architect Roger Peter Porter faced a challenge: how to deliver captivating city and ocean views and create a huge penthouse in an intimate condominium complex. The result? Unit 301 at 1995 Molino Avenue, now offered for sale by its original owner. Views spread in infinite panorama from sunset over the Palos Verdes Peninsula, downtown Long Beach via Santa Catalina to the South Coast. Inside, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and an office office occupy over 2400 square feet of top floor living space. Top floor enables the use of skylights for illumination of the vast cathedral ceilinged living room and formal dining room designed to frame world class views in the picture windows. A unique space is located below the master bedroom on level 2 connected by a spiral staircase. Its secondary private entrance facilitates use as a professional office or fourth bedroom. The overall unit runs the length of the upper south facing facade which provides an additional 1100 square feet of private balcony to front, side and rear; and unsurpassed hallways and interior wall space for display of artwork. Two deeded side by side parking spaces with secure storage landscaped private community spa connect by elevator. RETRO or RENO?….that is the question. The custom finishes used in the 1980 construction, like the Italian marble fire surround, retain their resplendence today for a classic post mid-century aesthetic. The home is being sold 'as-is' and includes all furniture as well as the self playing Yamaha baby grand piano to add to the entertaining potential. For the ‘renovator’ buyer, a few upgrades could bring this dwelling into a contemporary masterpiece beyond compare. Signal Hill has intricate walking trails and convenient freeway access, is close to ocean, shopping and restaurants, CSULB, Long Beach Airport and the burgeoning aerospace industry campus.
Here is a unique opportunity to own a spectacular luxury view home in the quiet View Crest complex of nine units. Words do little justice to this spectacular dwelling, arrange to see it while it is still available!
