Welcome to The Arlington Cottage, a beautifully updated 1913 Craftsman bungalow on a spacious lot in the heart of Old Town Torrance. This home blends vintage charm with modern comfort, featuring an upgraded kitchen, mini-split AC/heating, fresh paint throughout, and newly landscaped front and backyards. The fully finished garage adds approximately 475 sq ft of extra usable space, complete with a gym that fits an SUV and a separate office that’s perfect for working from home, hosting guests, or creative projects. The backyard is designed for play and gatherings, featuring a charming playhouse, a chalkboard wall, a motorized gate, and a bonus parking pad. With two storage sheds, great indoor/outdoor flow, and flexible spaces, The Arlington Cottage is the perfect spot for a young family to grow—or a young professional to thrive—in one of Torrance’s most loved and walkable neighborhoods.
