On the top floor, soaring ceilings and skylights invite natural light to pour through the home, illuminating rich hardwood floors and airy living spaces designed for effortless beachside living. The living room centers around a statement fireplace, creating warmth and connection, while oversized windows frame neighborhood and peek-a-boo coastline views. Just off the main living area, a sunroom serves as a bright office or creative retreat with west facing views and coastal breezes.
The kitchen is crisp and timeless, with clean lines, abundant cabinetry, and an easy flow to both formal and casual dining spaces — ideal for gathering after long beach days or hosting relaxed evenings with friends. The primary suite is also positioned on this upper level, complete with its own fireplace, walk in closet and a tranquil, retreat-like feel.
Downstairs, a second living room or den provides a relaxed hangout space with direct access to the backyard, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining. Also on this level are two additional generously sized bedrooms and a shared bathroom, thoughtfully laid out for comfort and privacy.
Outdoor spaces include decks, patios, and a private backyard retreat anchored by a fire pit perfect for sunset conversations under the sky. Central air, recessed lighting, and curated built-ins enhance everyday livability while maintaining an understated elegance.
Just blocks from schools, restaurants, greenbelt and the sand, this Tree Section home captures the essence of Manhattan Beach living: elevated yet relaxed, sophisticated yet warm, and always connected to the coast.
