I just listed a condominium in Rancho Palos Verdes. It's in a quiet, secluded area and has an amazing, unobstructed view of the ocean and Catalina. The building has two tennis courts, a pickle ball court, garden plots, an exercise room, his and her's saunas, a conference room with a fireplace that homeowner's can rent for just $50 a day, a pool, a whirlpool bath, and trails along the ocean cliffs taking you all the way to the Trump Golf Course. You will never miss a sunset as long as you are home before the sun splashes into the ocean. And it is very close to the UCLA South Bay campus. $1,360,000.

Enjoy unobstructed views of the ocean and resort like amenities from this elegant, quiet home.
