Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1942, the property is in move-in ready condition with significant maintenance and updates. The main house features beautifully refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint, while the detached guest house appears to have undergone a more recent modern renovation (likely <10 years) including a mini-split HVAC system and updated kitchenette. The main kitchen and bath are functional and very well-maintained, though they reflect an older renovation style, placing the overall property firmly in the 'Good' category.
The property features a detached guest house with its own kitchen and bathroom, providing excellent potential for rental income, a private home office, or a guest suite not included in the main square footage.
This meticulously maintained home is move-in ready, boasting fresh paint, refinished hardwood floors, and professional landscaping, which reduces the need for immediate post-purchase investment.
Located just five miles from Manhattan Beach, the property offers a beach-adjacent lifestyle and ocean breezes at a significantly more accessible price point than neighboring coastal communities.
With only 794 square feet in the main residence, the living space is relatively small, which may be a constraint for growing families or buyers requiring more storage and room to spread out.
While the local elementary school is highly rated (8/10), the assigned middle and high schools have significantly lower ratings (4/10 and 3/10), which could impact long-term resale value for families.
