Perched above the charming seaside town of Avalon, Overlook Hall is a rare and storied architectural gem that captures the essence of Santa Catalina Island living—where history, ocean vistas, and timeless design converge.

The property’s scale and character allow for flexible use, offering both intimate spaces and larger gathering areas that can seamlessly accommodate a variety of occasions.

Each room tells a story—balancing historic integrity with the potential for thoughtful modernization. Set on a premier hillside lot, the grounds of Overlook Hall provide multiple vantage points for entertaining, relaxing, or simply taking in the island’s tranquil rhythm.
