About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome Home! This beautiful 3 bedroom 2 bath Manhattan Beach Tree section home is fabulous. The two-level home has a large, bright primary suite with a sunny balcony that overlooks the Greenbelt; great for taking in an evening sunset or an early morning coffee. The primary suite, built over the 2 car garage in 1994, has a wonderful full bathroom and walk-in closet with nice proportions. The main level has excellent flow with a spacious living room that basks in sunlight from 2 large skylights and a beautiful beamed ceiling with wonderful craftsmanship. The stunning original oak hardwood floors have been finished to last through the ages. The timeless brick fireplace and beamed ceilings give this house a peaceful easy feeling that makes this comfortable place feel like home. The functional kitchen flows off the living space and could be opened up for even greater light and space. Moving down the hallway, there are two bedrooms and a full bath that have been maintained well. The sizable back yard and patio offers a private and tranquil retreat. This home is ready to move in now as it stands or you can add some value and create your own masterpiece.
