Interior upgrades include mostly new drywall, Milgard double-pane windows, new solid-core doors , fresh interior/exterior paint, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The kitchen is mostly updated with a new Samsung electric stove; bathroom has been elevated with Italian tile, a custom tub and vanity, Calacatta marble accents, and designer Delta fixtures. Outside features all-new irrigation/drip and sprinkler systems, a freshly installed front lawn, new fencing, and a picturesque floral garden. A separate two-car garage with alley access ideal for ADU/income potential. Located in a top Torrance school zone, this turnkey opportunity is move-in ready.
