One Family. 75 Years. Endless Potential.
Welcome to 1807 Marinette Street, located mid-block on a quiet, tree-lined street in the highly sought-after Old Torrance neighborhood—a beloved pocket of the South Bay known for its character-rich homes, walkable streets, and that hard-to-find, small-town feel with big-time charm.
Owned by the same family since 1949—purchased with a $10 down payment, no less—this home has seen generations grow, gather, and make memories. It was expanded in the early ''60s and lovingly maintained ever since, but not updated, making it a true fixer with fantastic bones and a rare opportunity to reimagine a home from the ground up. It’s being sold AS IS, ready for its next chapter.
The backyard is a sweet slice of Southern California, with lemon, orange, and apple trees providing shade and fresh fruit, plus classic raised vegetable beds just waiting for a green thumb to bring them back to life. A stately Magnolia tree anchors the front yard, adding curb appeal and timeless character.
Beyond the property lines, you’re just minutes from everything that makes Old Torrance special—award-winning Torrance schools, the charming shops and eateries of Downtown Torrance, weekend strolls at El Prado Park, and a strong sense of community that keeps people here for decades.
This isn’t just a home—it’s a legacy with endless potential, and a golden opportunity to create something truly special in one of the South Bay’s most beloved neighborhoods.
Bring your contractor, your imagination, and your vision—but don’t wait. Homes like this don’t come around every decade.
