Welcome to 1742 Martina Avenue, a sun-drenched Spanish charmer nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Torrance. This beautifully updated home offers a perfect blend of warmth, character, and modern upgrades.
Inside, you'll find an open floorplan that creates a seamless connection between the living, dining, and kitchen areas - perfect for both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen and bathroom have been tastefully updated, while the home is flooded with bright natural light and enjoys a refreshing daily breeze that flows through every room.
Comfort is key with central air conditioning for those warmer summer days.
Outside, the large, flat backyard is both usable and inviting - ideal for gatherings, gardening, or simply relaxing under the sun. The property also comes with approved ADU plans, offering incredible potential for a future guest house, home office, or rental unit. A detached garage sits at the rear of the property, adding even more flexibility.
Located just minutes from parks, shops, and award-winning Torrance schools, this is a real opportunity to own a move-in ready home with charm, space, and future potential. It is my pleasure to bring this one to market!
