About This Home
As of June 2021Mid-century modern meets Manhattan Beach! Just blocks from the ocean, schools, parks, and downtown MB—and across from the greenbelt trail—this stylish 3-bed, 2-bath home is ideal for active families. A smooth-coat exterior and secure teak gate put a modern spin on the front yard’s drought-friendly succulent garden. Inside, the living/dining room with smooth-coat fireplace and gray washed original hardwoods is flooded with light thanks to a wall of glass sliders that lead to the backyard. This virtual outdoor living room boasts a large concrete patio, built-in gas firepit, artificial turf, outdoor shower and Jacuzzi! The kitchen gets a fun pop of color from green quartz counters, dark cabinets, white subway tile, and top-of-the-line stainless appliances including a Jenn-Aire range. A cheerful office with skylight leads to the 2-car garage. Two bright bedrooms, great for kids, have mirrored closets and ceiling fans, and share a bath with penny tile and double sinks. The charming master suite has a walk-in closet, stylish new bathroom with skylight, and sliders to the backyard. With new dual-pane windows, plumbing and electrical, this home keeps much of its original mid-century charm while spoiling you with all the modern conveniences your family craves!
