About This Home

As of September 2025

Perfectly positioned in the bullseye of the Manhattan Beach Strand, this is more than a home-it’s a front-row seat to one of the most iconic coastal experiences in the world. Situated along the most exclusive stretch of the Strand, in the prestigious south end between 2nd and 8th Streets, this extraordinary 4 bed, 5 bath, 4,526-square-foot architectural masterpiece by Mark Appell, sitting on one of the deepest lots, offers a lifestyle defined by elegance, design, & unobstructed ocean views from Palos Verdes Peninsula to Malibu. Spanning 3 levels, the home showcases a stunning modern aesthetic with soft, curvilinear lines and expansive walls of glass that invite natural light & panoramic ocean vistas into nearly every room. The top-floor primary suite is a sanctuary of privacy and sophistication, complete with a spa-like bath, a generous walk-in closet, and an elevated office area that looks out over the Pacific. Step onto the private ocean-facing deck each morning with a cup of coffee or unwind in the evening as the sun disappears beneath the horizon. Just across from the primary suite, a warm and inviting family room features rich wood paneling, offering a cozy, mountain-lodge atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the sleek coastal design. 2 additional bedrooms are tucked just beyond, providing a peaceful private retreat for family or guests. On the mid-level, a gourmet kitchen equipped with top-tier appliances opens to the great room and dining area, creating a seamless flow ideal for both intimate dinners & lively gatherings. The adjacent ocean-view deck expands the living space even further, offering an ideal setting for sunset entertaining. To top it off the home has a rare, grandfathered rooftop deck—an exceptional feature on the Strand. With a hot tub, lush garden, & sweeping views of the coastline, it’s the perfect place to relax under the stars, entertain friends, or simply savor the peace that comes with beachfront living. Additional highlights include a private elevator, a sauna, a 4-car garage, and an outdoor surf shower, all reflecting the thoughtful attention to luxury, comfort, & functionality. 708 The Strand is not only a home but a legacy—an opportunity to live in, remodel, or reimagine your dream property in the most sought-after location along Manhattan Beach’s coastline. This is a rare offering, combining timeless architecture with unparalleled placement, and inviting you to live a beach life in a community unlike any other.
