Welcome to Unit 219 at La Contessa, a light-filled upper-level residence located in the highly sought-after Southwood Riviera area of South Torrance. Offering an ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and location, this inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features a functional floor plan and an tasteful upgrades throughout. The west-facing patio provides a wonderful space to relax or entertain, while recent improvements include new dual-pane windows, an upgraded electrical panel and wiring, a remodeled kitchen, and a beautifully remodeled shower in the rear en-suite bathroom. The home also includes two side-by-side parking spaces in the gated subterranean garage, a valuable feature rarely found at this price point, along with additional storage. Situated on a tree-lined street within the award-winning Torrance Unified School District, the location offers convenient access to shopping, dining, parks, and everyday amenities. Popular restaurants, boutiques, and cafes in the Hollywood Riviera are just minutes away. Residents of La Contessa enjoy a well-maintained community with secured access, beautifully landscaped grounds, a recently refreshed foyer and mail area, pool, spa, and clubhouse. One of the community's most appealing features is its scale. With only 47 residences spread throughout a collection of two-story buildings, La Contessa feels more open and spacious than many larger condominium developments. Winding walkways, mature landscaping, and thoughtfully maintained common areas create a setting that feels distinct from many higher-density communities.
