Description

A warm, classic beach house in the heart of Manhattan Beach’s highly sought-after Sand Section, located on one of the most desirable streets in town. The neighborhood has a true local beach community feel with longtime neighbors, a relaxed atmosphere, and an easygoing coastal lifestyle that makes people fall in love with Manhattan Beach. Just a 5-minute walk to the sand and The Strand, and an easy walk to downtown Manhattan Beach restaurants, cafés, boutiques, grocery stores, and the pier. The perfect FIFA / World Cup Soccer family home. The location is also ideal for longer stays with convenient access to LAX, UCLA, USC, LMU, the Westside, Santa Monica, Venice, and the South Bay beach communities including Hermosa, Redondo, and Palos Verdes. The house itself is comfortable, welcoming, and full of character — not a pristine modern build, but a true beach home designed for living well, casual entertaining, and enjoying time together. The layout has wonderful indoor/outdoor flow with multiple spaces to gather, relax, work remotely, or unwind after the beach. $11,500 October - May. June = $14,500. July = $18,000.

Dog-friendly with approval, fee, and deposit for the right fit. We kindly ask that dogs not use the front yard or patios as bathroom areas, as these are spaces we enjoy for relaxing, dining, and entertaining. Weekly gardening service included, along with Monday cleaning downstairs/kitchen/floors and full-home cleaning every other Thursday. This is a relaxed residential neighborhood and not a party house. Guests who appreciate comfortable coastal living, respectful neighbors, and the true Manhattan Beach lifestyle will feel right at home.
