About This Home
As of June 2025Welcome to this ready to move in beautifully updated and remodeled family home in the heart of West Torrance. Such a great location. Close by park, award winning West, Victor and Bert Lynn Schools, medical facilities, the Del Amo Mall, shopping & of course those wonderful cool ocean breezes. All major things have been done for you. The roof is newer, there is PEX plumbing, a cleanout, ABS at sewer line, double pane windows, a newer forced air heating & air conditioner, a newer front door, crown and base moldings and a newly relined inground pool. The kitchen is a chef's delight with newer appliances, a kitchen island perfect for informal dining, soft closing cabinetry, huge hood fan and open to an area that can be used as living room and also extra space for a breakfast table or nook. The laundry area is tucked away underneath cabinets so nicely hidden away. Step down family room with a cozy fireplace. Four bedrooms which includes a good size primary suite. Remodeled bathrooms one with dual counters. Some hardwood flooring. New water heater. Cement driveway, two car garage and ample parking for guest or family members on driveway. Have fun this summer enjoying this wonderful in ground newly lined pool. Private backyard, block wall fencing, covered patio so you enjoy a BBQ while watchin the fun poolside.
