    What's special

    This quintessential beach cottage offers an exceptional opportunity to experience coastal living at its finest. Perfectly perched atop the coveted Hermosa Hills, this charming single-story residence features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a coveted corner lot, and a delightful peek-a-boo ocean view — all wrapped in timeless seaside charm. Bathed in abundant natural light, the home exudes warmth and character throughout. Whether you envision enjoying it exactly as it is or creating your dream coastal retreat, the possibilities are endless. Add a second story to capture sweeping panoramic ocean views, or transform the oversized one-car garage into a stylish ADU, private office, home gym, or creative flex space for added square footage and versatility. The inviting kitchen offers direct access to the side patio, creating the perfect setting for effortless indoor-outdoor living, al fresco dining, morning coffee, or a tranquil retreat for children and pets to play. A massive gated front yard provides even more space to expand, entertain, garden, or simply soak in the ocean breeze. Freshly painted interior and an eat-in kitchen option make this home truly move-in ready while still offering incredible potential to personalize and make it your own. Ideally located in the heart of the Hermosa Hills, you’re just moments from the Greenbelt, the beach, award-winning Hermosa schools, and vibrant Pier Avenue, where trendy restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and lively nightlife await. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own your slice of the idyllic beach lifestyle in one of Hermosa Beach’s most desirable neighborhoods.
