Property Description

Ocean views, abundant natural light, proximity to the beach, and a rare four-car garage come together in this thoughtfully updated South Hermosa home. Positioned west of PCH, just a few blocks from the beach, the Greenbelt, and South Park, the property offers a balance of coastal setting, everyday functionality, and low-maintenance living. Spanning 2,160 square feet, the floor plan places the main living spaces on the upper level, where expansive windows capture ocean views stretching from Palos Verdes to Manhattan Beach. Throughout the day, sailboats move across the horizon while natural light fills the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating bright, comfortable spaces for both everyday living and an open flow ideal for entertaining. The kitchen has been thoughtfully remodeled with JennAir appliances, a Bosch dishwasher, quartzite stone countertops, a 10-foot island, custom cabinetry, and generous pantry storage. It opens seamlessly to the dining and living areas, where hardwood flooring, glass railings, custom lighting, and a Crystallo stone fireplace create a clean, timeless aesthetic. All three bedrooms are located on the main level, each with direct access to a balcony. Separated from the entertaining spaces above, they provide a quiet retreat with ocean breezes and the sound of the surf often carrying in from nearby. The lower level is designed with practicality in mind, offering a mudroom, laundry room, dedicated storage, and a rare four-car garage. Whether used for vehicles, surfboards, bikes, a golf cart, a home gym, or additional storage, the space offers a level of flexibility that is difficult to find this close to the beach. A shared guest parking space in the driveway and a small backyard area suitable for pets or young children complete the property. Additional owner improvements include fully remodeled kitchen and primary bath with carefully selected finishes, hardwood flooring and tile throughout, designer lighting, glass railings, a coffee bar. Located within the Hermosa Beach School District, the home has no HOA and no attached walls, offering the privacy and feel of a single-family residence with minimal exterior maintenance. The property may also be offered partially furnished.
