About This Home
As of July 2025Tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street in Palos Verdes Estates’ sought-after Valmonte neighborhood, this updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod offers the perfect blend of classic charm, modern upgrades, and room to grow. With ~1,468 sq ft of living space on an expansive 7,798 sq ft flat lot, this home is ideal for young families or anyone looking to put down roots in a close-knit community known for its serene setting and top-rated schools.
Step inside to discover refurbished original oak hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a light-filled living room that opens to a durable Ipe wood deck—perfect for entertaining or enjoying peaceful afternoons overlooking the private, landscaped backyard. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, refaced cabinetry, and newer appliances, while the primary suite is thoughtfully set apart from the other bedrooms for added privacy.
Significant upgrades include a new HVAC system, full home rewiring with Cat6 ethernet, an EV-ready electrical panel, and a fully insulated, drywalled garage—perfect for a gym, studio, or workshop. Over $40,000 in architectural plans and permits are included, with nearly-finalized approval to potentially expand the home into a 4-bedroom, 2-bath layout.
Enjoy proximity to local walking trails, the Valmonte garden, and the best of Palos Verdes living. With very few homes available in this price range and location, this is a rare opportunity.
