If you're not watching the Super Bowl this lovely Sunday afternoon you are cordially invited to join me at my open house at 6542 Ocean Crest Drive just off Hawthorne Blvd. in Rancho Palos Verdes. I'm not sure what time the Super Bowl begins (can you tell I'm not a football fan?) but the open house hours are 1-3 PM.

The two bedroom, two bath condo is located in a gated complex and has a lovely ocean view, spacious balcony to enjoy the view, new carpet, upgraded bathrooms, and perhaps best of all, a motivated seller and a price under $400,000.

The unit is positioned to be light and bright throughout the day and the freshly painted soft white walls offer a blank canvas for your decor.

If you're searching for a place to enjoy the Palos Verdes lifestyle, downsizing but want to to stay in Palos Verdes or looking for a PV address so your children can attend one of the finest public school districts in Southern California, you really should attend this open house. If you simply cannot pull yourself away from the game, then call me when it's over and I'll arrange to give you a personal tour.
