About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to 721 12th Street, an exquisite property with unbeatable walkability in the heart of Manhattan Beach. This home features an elevator, providing convenient access to all levels. The lower level, previously a separate studio, has been seamlessly connected to the main house. A La Cantina door spans the entire back side flooding the area with natural light. The addition of a wine closet, bar, and granite-topped kitchen, along with custom-built cabinetry, a queen-size wall bed, and built-in desk, maximizes the functionality of the space for various uses from entertaining to guest accommodations. This space is separate from the primary living area. Outside, the private backyard unfolds as an oasis showcasing a tranquil waterfall, stone gas fire pit, and turf lawn epitomizing indoor/outdoor living at its best. Ascending to the second floor you'll discover the primary retreat, a true haven of comfort and style. This suite has been thoughtfully designed, with a private balcony, fireplace, and a spacious walk-in closet adorned with cabinetry. The primary bath is spa-like, with a large tub and a spacious stand-in shower with pebble floor. You'll find two more bedrooms with Juliette railings and a full bath on this floor. Additionally the laundry room has been enhanced with granite countertops and cabinetry. On the upper level, the kitchen has been beautifully renovated with Taj Mahal quartzite counters. The addition of a new Sub-Zero fridge, wine fridge, along with a Thermador range and oven, elevate the cooking experience. A breakfast nook featuring a built-in bench and surrounding windows with ocean glimpses provides a cozy spot for morning meals or relaxed get-togethers. Adjacent, an ocean peek patio offers serene views. Additionally, a spacious outdoor patio accommodates al fresco dining for up to 6 guests. A walk-in pantry ensures generous storage for all your essentials. Also on this level is the office/5th bedroom thoughtfully designed with built-in bookshelves, cabinetry, and a desk, creating a productive and inspiring workspace. An oversized balcony provides a serene escape with breathtaking views of the backyard and mountains. This property is a rare treasure offering an unmatched fusion of elegance, functionality, and thoughtful design, complemented by its proximity to downtown, the beach, and local schools, making it an ideal location for enjoying the vibrant community.
