About this property
PRIME TREE SECTION LOCATION | BUILT IN 2020 | 4 BEDROOMS + UPSTAIRS BONUS ROOM | 4.5 BATHROOMS | 3,200 SQ. FT. (BTV) | 4,484 SQ. FT. LOT Built in 2020 and updated by its current owners, this Tree Section home pairs open gathering spaces with four en-suite bedrooms and an upstairs bonus room. A two-story entry, high ceilings and abundant natural light create a welcoming introduction, while hardwood floors throughout and modern designer lighting fixtures add warmth and style. The kitchen, dining area and great room share an open layout, with a fireplace in the great room and La Cantina doors opening to a large covered patio. With the doors open, the patio becomes an extension of the living space, with a landscaped backyard beyond. The kitchen features Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, a separate prep sink and a spacious walk-in pantry. A ground-floor bedroom suite gives guests their own space apart from the upstairs bedrooms. The primary suite features a vaulted, beamed ceiling, a fireplace and an oversized walk-in closet. Its Carrara marble bathroom includes a luxury soaking tub, a large walk-in shower with a built-in seat and a Japanese bidet. The upstairs bonus room provides a place for an office, media room or playroom without giving up one of the four bedrooms. The upstairs laundry room includes a built-in sink, and the home offers central air conditioning, built-in speakers and abundant storage. A street-facing balcony offers another place to step outside, while the attached two-car garage has an epoxy-finished floor. Set in Manhattan Beach’s Tree Section, the home is near the Greenbelt, Manhattan Village, downtown shopping and dining, and the beach, within Manhattan Beach Unified School District.

Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
