About This Home
As of August 2026This is an Old Torrance Gem!!! For starters, this home is located walking distance from Torrance High School, Downtown Torrance, restaurants, churches and parks. It is an East facing two-bedroom one bath front house with a beautiful Magnolia tree in the front yard providing lots of shade. As you walk up the walkway to the front door you will see nice green grass on both sides with landscaped planters. Overlooking the front yard there is a nice patio to have your morning coffees or relax after work while the sun goes down. Let's go inside! As you walk in the front door, you'll notice the wood fireplace with original mantle and large street facing windows. To the right is a formal dining room with more large windows and an entry way to the kitchen. The kitchen is more open than the average kitchen. It has tile floors, a good amount of cabinet space, good counter space, and has an entry way to the laundry room. The laundry room is on the backside of the house, the layout is open enough for the washer and dryer to be side by side and it has a back door that leads to the side of the house. The bedrooms and bathroom are on the south side of the house. The bedrooms are both good size and include closets. There is a good size backyard where you can have BBQ's, play with the kids, or just enjoy the breeze in beautiful Old Torrance. Oh yeah, and there's an orange tree!
