Nestled in the coveted Hill Section of Manhattan Beach, 876 5th Street is a timeless retreat set on a one-of-a-kind lot, offering some of the most breathtaking views in the neighborhood. Completely renovated, nearly every element of this home has been thoughtfully reimagined. With 5 bedrooms + an office, 7 bathrooms, and a thoughtful reverse floorplan, the home offers a rare mix of generous scale and understated elegance. Perched at one of the highest points in the Hill Section, its elevated layout maximizes the sweeping ocean views from the Palos Verdes Peninsula and Catalina to Malibu. Entering through the custom pivot front door, you are welcomed into the main level of the home featuring three bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath, and a versatile home office that may also function as an additional bedroom. Additionally on this level, a spacious den/family room with a built-in wet bar, opens directly to the backyard terrace and pool deck. Outside, a covered dining terrace with built-in heaters invites alfresco meals year-round. Just below, the pool deck provides space for lounging and sunbathing, anchored by a tranquil pool and spa with ocean vistas visible from every vantage point. Ascend to the upper level, where the heart of the home unfolds. Here, discover a chef’s kitchen with an oversized island, six-burner dual-oven range, eat-in breakfast bar, and premium vintage-style finishes. The space flows into two dining settings, one casual and intimate, and the other more formal, comfortably accommodating eight. Framed by panoramic views and flooded with natural light, the living room is complemented by a statement fireplace and opens onto a full-length ocean-facing terrace through sliding glass doors. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with ocean views stretching toward Malibu. The spa-like ensuite includes a soaking tub, glass shower, dual vanities, heated floors, and a private water closet, in addition to a generous walk-in closet and a secondary terrace wired for a cold plunge and sauna. An additional bedroom with its own ensuite is also located on this level. Among thoughtful amenities is an oversized three-car garage with room for two car lifts, equaling five total garage spots. With its prime location and unmatched ocean views, just moments from the sand, shops and restaurants of Downtown Manhattan Beach, and some of the top-rated schools in the South Bay—the home is a rare blend of thoughtful design, elevated living, and everyday convenience.
