About the Building
One Coast is a 53-residence condominium and townhome community developed by Etco Homes on the Castellammare bluff at 17314-17330 Tramonto Drive in Pacific Palisades, above the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway. Pre-sales opened in 2017 with first move-ins targeted for early 2018, and listing records show 2018 construction; early trade coverage also named Taylor Morrison as a collaborator on the project, and the Los Angeles Business Journal later reported Etco's completion of the development. It remains the newest condominium community of scale built in the Palisades.
The community is gated and organised as a homeowners association covering a mix of 38 four- and five-bedroom townhomes and 15 single-level flats, per pre-opening coverage, arranged in low buildings stepped along the bluff so residences orient toward the ocean. Homes are large: recorded sizes run from roughly 2,800 square feet to over 5,000 square feet, with the biggest townhomes offering five bedrooms and five baths. Many homes carry private roof terraces with spas and barbecues, effectively adding an outdoor storey to the plan.
Specification was pitched at the single-family buyer trading out of a Palisades or Brentwood house: floor-to-ceiling glazing, hardwood floors, Linea Quattro cabinetry, Wolf ranges, Asko dishwashers and Sub-Zero refrigeration in the original build-out. Because the community delivered in phases from 2018, most homes remain close to developer specification, which keeps resale comparisons relatively clean by Westside standards. Elevators serve the flats, and the townhomes live vertically with attached garage parking, though buyers should confirm each home's exact parking count in escrow.
Shared amenities lean on the site rather than a clubhouse: a bluff-edge observation terrace with outdoor lounge, fire pits and a telescope, an on-demand concierge service, and, most distinctively, a private stairway descending to the beach below the bluff, an amenity almost no Los Angeles condominium community can offer. Dues amounts and inclusions are not published; the budget covers gates, grounds, the terrace and concierge arrangements, and should be reviewed alongside the association's insurance programme, which carries particular weight in this location.
The honest framing of value here has two sides. On one hand: the newest large-home condominium stock in the Palisades, on a bluff with direct beach access, in a supply environment where nothing comparable is entitled. On the other: the January 2025 Palisades fire affected the surrounding area, and Caltrans separately documents active landslide management in the Tramonto-Castellammare corridor above PCH. Buyers should verify the community's current physical condition, any HOA insurance and assessment consequences, geologic reports for the bluff, and the availability and cost of fire insurance early in the process.
Amenities & Services
The Residences
Thirty-eight townhomes in four- and five-bedroom plans anchor the community, the largest around 5,000 square feet with five baths, living vertically with attached garages and, in many cases, private roof terraces.
Fifteen single-level residences serve buyers wanting house-scale space without stairs, recorded from roughly 2,800 square feet, with elevator access and the same ocean-facing orientation as the townhomes.
Many homes carry private roof decks fitted with spas and barbecues, positioned to take the Santa Monica Bay panorama from Point Dume toward Palos Verdes, effectively an additional outdoor floor.
Original finishes include floor-to-ceiling glazing, hardwood floors, Linea Quattro cabinetry, Wolf, Asko and Sub-Zero appliances; most homes remain near delivery condition given the community's 2018-era completion.
Buildings step along the bluff so principal rooms and terraces face the water above PCH; homes deeper in the site trade panorama for gate-side quiet and typically price accordingly.
All 53 residences sit inside a single gated enclave off Tramonto Drive in Castellammare, above Sunset and PCH, with the community's observation terrace and beach stairway shared among owners.
Due Diligence
The January 2025 Palisades fire affected the surrounding area. Credible sources do not document this community's specific outcome, so verify current physical condition, any HOA insurance claims or assessments, and rebuild activity directly.
Fire insurance availability and cost in Pacific Palisades should be confirmed early, for both the association's master policy and individual HO-6 coverage, as market conditions in the area have tightened since 2025.
Caltrans documents active landslide management in the Tramonto-Castellammare corridor above PCH. Request the community's geologic and bluff-stability reports and ask the HOA about monitoring and related expenditures.
Townhomes include attached garage parking; flats use community garage spaces. Exact counts per home and guest arrangements are not uniformly published, so confirm the specific allocation in escrow.
A formal pet policy is not publicly documented. Request the association's current written rules on number, size and breed before removing contingencies.
Rental terms, minimum lease lengths and any caps are not published for this association. Review the CC&Rs before purchasing with rental intent; large-home rentals in the area are an active market.
Dues amounts and inclusions are not published. The budget funds gates, grounds, the observation terrace, beach stairway maintenance and concierge arrangements; review it alongside the master insurance programme.
The private stairway to the beach is a signature amenity; confirm its current condition, any post-2025 repairs and the association's maintenance obligations, as coastal structures of this kind carry recurring costs.
Everything above is drawn from public records, city permit data and published sources. The association’s statutory disclosure package is the only authoritative answer on dues, rules, reserves, insurance and litigation — Ben will request it and read it with you before you remove contingencies.
