About This Home
As of April 2026Tucked behind lush greenery, this Manhattan Beach haven immediately exudes a sense of calm. Reimagined with a designer’s eye, the home layers organic textures with sculptural details, creating a modern coastal vibe that feels both elevated and soulfully relaxed.
Inside, buttery oak floors and tailored finishes set the stage for a single-level layout that flows with ease. The kitchen and baths showcase stonework with tactile depth, dual vanities, and a spa-like primary retreat with double rain showers—a blend of utility and indulgence that feels curated rather than conventional. High ceilings and discreet lighting keep the interiors luminous, while a statement fireplace anchors the living space with understated drama.
Equally compelling are the outdoor moments. The front garden feels cloistered and serene, while the backyard unfolds like a private alfresco lounge—ideal for slow mornings, long table dinners, or late-night gatherings under string lights.
Living here means enjoying the best of Manhattan Beach at your doorstep. Just minutes from the sand and downtown, and close to Manhattan Village’s dining and shopping, this location captures the essence of California coastal living. It’s a home that invites you to slow down, breathe in the ocean air, and embrace a lifestyle that’s equal parts stylish and relaxed.
