Situated directly on Ocean Front Walk, this iconic Venice Beach property offers a rare combination of beachfront living and income potential. The approximately 2,641 square foot Spanish style building, rich with over a century of character, features 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. As a beach home, the residence delivers authentic coastal living with sweeping ocean and Boardwalk views, a rooftop deck, original architectural details blended with thoughtful updates, handcrafted tile work, and resort style amenities including a 10-person sauna. A gated private courtyard provides parking for approximately 4 to 6 vehicles, an exceptionally rare offering on the Boardwalk. As an income opportunity, the property offers multiple revenue streams. In addition to residential rental potential, the property includes approved use for open air retail activity with up to three vendor spaces along Ocean Front Walk. These spaces allow for Boardwalk style retail such as art, apparel, or other merchandise vendors, benefiting from significant daily foot traffic in one of Southern California's most visited destinations. A separate one-bedroom unit with its own private garage adds flexibility for additional income, guest use, or owner occupancy. While the property is not zoned for traditional storefront retail or restaurant use, its prominent frontage of approximately 44 feet along Ocean Front Walk provides exceptional visibility and exposure. Buyers may explore future expansion or alternative uses subject to City and Coastal approvals. Adding to its historical and cultural significance, this stretch of Ocean Front Walk has long attracted artists, performers, and Hollywood icons. As noted in the Washington Post article "Stepping Out in Venice, the Hollywood crowd came down to shoot silent movies and to play; among the part time residents were Isadora Duncan, Charlie Chaplin and Tom Mix." The article further references Tom Mix's residence at "1915 Ocean Front Walk," reinforcing the property's placement within this iconic and historically significant corridor. Positioned behind the Venice paddle courts and at the heart of the Boardwalk, this property presents a unique opportunity to own a true Venice landmark with a blend of residential use and high visibility, income generating potential.
