Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in the heart of Southwood, this beautifully expanded and remodeled four bedroom, three bathroom single-family home offers nearly 2,110 square feet of stylish livable space - just over two miles from the beach and Redondo Pier.
A manicured front lawn welcomes you into an open-concept layout where the living room, dining area, and kitchen flow seamlessly together, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The remodeled (2021) kitchen boasts quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, a central island, modern appliances, and a walk-in pantry. A laundry room sits just off the kitchen for added convenience.
Surrounded by lush green plants, mature bushes, and trees, the home feels peaceful and private. Nearly every window on the main level looks out to vibrant greenery, bringing natural light and a sense of calm into every room.
The downstairs includes three bedrooms, a full bath, and a three-quarter bath toward the back of the home. Upstairs, the spacious and private primary suite offers an en-suite bath and charming neighborhood views.
The entertainer’s dream side yard includes an outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbecue, pizza oven, propane burner, sink, seating area, gorgeous imported granite countertop and a lemon tree. The backyard is a private retreat, featuring a grassy lawn, colorful flowers, an orange tree, and a play structure.
Almost doubled in size since 2021, the home includes modern upgrades: central A/C, newer roof, dual pane windows, water heater, wood flooring, recessed lighting & EV charger. The attached two-car garage offers great storage and versatility. Located near shopping, dining, Del Amo Mall, Torrance Memorial Hospital, and zoned for highly rated Torrance schools.
