The Magic of Ocean Avenue Extension: Where Coastal Elegance Meets City Convenience
Just a few blocks from the waves and the iconic Palisades Park lies one of Los Angeles’ most exclusive secrets: Ocean Avenue Extension — a tucked-away hillside stretch offering unmatched ocean and canyon views, rich local culture, and the rare opportunity to build a dream home in one of the most coveted coastal enclaves in Southern California.
An Address That Has It All
While the mailing address may read Santa Monica, Ocean Avenue Extension is officially part of the City of Los Angeles, falling within the Pacific Palisades boundary. This unique position gives residents the best of both worlds: access to LA city services and infrastructure combined with the walkable charm, beach-town feel, and prestige of Santa Monica living.
One of the last remaining trophy lots in this area — now available for the first time in decades— offers panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Santa Monica Canyon, and surrounding bluffs. Just imagine waking up to golden sunrises and ending your day with crimson sunsets — all from your own future dream home perched on the hillside.
Steps from Palisades Park — A Local Treasure
Just a block from the lot, Palisades Park stretches 1.6 miles along Ocean Avenue and is widely regarded as one of the most breathtaking urban parks in the country. With manicured rose gardens, vintage street lamps, historic bluffs, and uninterrupted views of the coastline, it’s the perfect place for daily walks, morning yoga, or sunset picnics.
Locals love the park for:
-
Jogging or biking along the cliffs
-
Weekend farmer’s market at Arizona Avenue
-
Outdoor art installations and street performers
-
Dog-walking meetups and fitness bootcamps
-
Wedding photo shoots and quiet reflection under the eucalyptus trees
It’s not just a park — it’s a lifestyle anchor for the neighborhood.
Walk to Montana Avenue – A Shopper's & Foodie’s Paradise
Less than five minutes away is Montana Avenue, a vibrant yet laid-back strip filled with independent boutiques, wellness studios, and some of the best coffee shops and fine dining on the Westside.
A few must-visit spots include:
-
Forma – a stylish Italian eatery known for pasta tossed in cheese wheels
-
R+D Kitchen – popular for its relaxed, upscale American classics
-
Caffe Luxxe – a neighborhood favorite for artisanal coffee
