Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Connectivity: Prime coastal-adjacent location offering easy access to Manhattan Beach, other beach cities, major employers (Northrop Grumman, SpaceX), and situated within the highly-rated Wiseburn School District.
Spacious & Functional Tri-Level Design: Generous 2076 sq ft with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, featuring a versatile ground-level guest suite/office, distinct living areas, and a design that provides a 'single-family feel'.
Abundant Natural Light & Views: As an end unit, the home benefits from 8 additional windows and skylights across all three levels, ensuring bright interiors, complemented by neighborhood, pool, and tree views from its balconies.
Premium Interior Features & Comfort: Boasts an oversized kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, a luxurious primary suite with a dual fireplace, jetted tub, and walk-in closet, plus central AC and heat for year-round comfort.
Ample Private Parking & Storage: Features a private two-car garage with ample storage, further enhanced by an exclusive parking pad providing space for a third vehicle, a significant advantage in the South Bay.

Cons

Attached Property Limitations: As a townhome, it inherently involves shared walls and potentially less private outdoor space compared to a detached single-family home, despite its 'single-family feel'.
Multi-Level Living (Stairs): The tri-level layout, while offering distinct living zones, requires navigating multiple flights of stairs, which could be a consideration for buyers with mobility concerns or those preferring single-story living.
Ongoing HOA Dues: Despite being described as 'low' for the area, the $420 monthly HOA fee is a recurring cost that adds to the overall housing expense and may be a deterrent for some buyers.
