About This Home
As of October 2025Welcome to 2540 Manhattan Ave, a true unicorn property perched in one of the most coveted pockets of Hermosa Beach. With panoramic, unobstructed views stretching from Catalina and Palos Verdes to the sparkling Queen’s Necklace and up to Malibu, this is coastal California living at its absolute finest. From your windows and rooftop decks, take in both the Manhattan and Hermosa Beach piers, mere moments away on foot, while the golden sand and ocean breeze are just steps from your door. This stunning residence is an entertainer’s dream. The private backyard oasis features a full-size pool, sunken firepit lounge, integrated sound system, and an outdoor bar and kitchen that’s perfect for hosting unforgettable gatherings. Two expansive rooftop decks provide additional space to relax, entertain, or simply soak in the epic sunsets and coastal beauty that surrounds you. Inside, this thoughtfully designed home offers a blend of luxury, comfort, and flexibility. A rare bonus: a fully separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath rental unit or guest house with its private entrance, ideal for visitors, in-laws, or additional income. Whether you’re seeking the ultimate beach house, an entertainer’s haven, or an iconic investment, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. Properties like this don’t come around often, and once it’s gone, there’s no recreating it.
