ONE MINUTE WALK TO THE SAND! WHITE WATER VIEWS! ELEVATOR! GUEST QUARTERS! LEGAL DUPLEX! CORNER LOT!
Hear the pounding of the surf…smell the salty air…gaze at the waves crashing on the shore…life can be sweet at this unique beach view retreat.
Rarely available haven just a minute walk to the sand in highly desirable Manhattan Beach offers the best of both worlds. Because of the addition of an elevator, this legal duplex is now ideal for extended family with mom and dad not having to worry about climbing to the second level.
Extensively remodeled home with newer kitchen, baths and doublepaned windows overlooking white water views from all key rooms and from the spacious balcony and brick patio makes this beach escape special. Easy parking with a two car garage plus ample nearby public parking makes this home great for entertaining.
Need a smaller place? Then freeze the elevator and rent one of the units! Or, as needs change, rent both units or check with the City about building a three story, 30 foot high home. Plus this property is in a small area of the City where short term rentals are allowed. Tremendous place to escape now and flexibility for the future.
And as nice as this property is currently, the views will be even nicer when the City approved undergrounding of utility lines and poles is completed per Public Works estimate of mid 2025. And current owner has already paid her assessment share for all of these changes and her own costs for preparing this home for a smooth connection.
This home is ideally located to enjoy great recreation from surfing to volleyball in the sand to bicycling on the 22 mile beach path to strolling on the Strand walking path overlooking rose gardens and expansive coastal views. Enjoy sailing and fishing with nearby Marinas as well as extensive shopping and restaurants ranging from fine dining to casual bites to eat. Just a short drive to downtown LA theatres, stadiums and much more. Plus LAX is only a few minutes away so the world is your oyster!
