Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1972, this 54-year-old home is functional but significantly dated. The kitchen features older oak-style cabinetry and a tile backsplash likely from a 20+ year old renovation. While the stainless steel appliances are newer, the carpet, tile flooring, and overall interior finishes require modernization to meet current luxury standards for the area.

The property is zoned for top-tier schools, including Hermosa View Elementary (rated 10/10), which is located just 0.14 miles away, making it highly attractive for families.
Situated in a highly desirable Hermosa Beach location, the home offers immediate access to South Bay beaches, premier dining, and boutique shopping.
