Experience Manhattan Beach from a front-row seat to the Pacific.
Set directly on The Strand at a prized NW corner location, this approximately 2,740-square-foot contemporary penthouse captures sweeping views of the coastline, ocean and sky. One of only two residences at the address, the home enjoys an exceptional advantage: approximately 105 additional feet of ocean exposure along the north-facing walk street, creating openness and perspective rarely found along the beachfront.
Completely reimagined from the studs, the two-level residence blends refined design, advanced technology and effortless coastal living. Three bedrooms, four bathrooms and three private decks create a home equally suited to quiet mornings above the surf, sunset entertaining and everyday living.
Wake to ocean views in the fireplace-equipped primary suite, then step onto your private deck to check the surf. The spa-inspired bath features an oversized 73-inch soaking tub and ThermaSol steam shower with integrated aromatherapy, lighting and sound.
Throughout the residence, smart-home technology places virtually everything at your fingertips. Security, motorized shades, climate, lighting, music and even the Thermador oven can be controlled from an iPad or smartphone.
The main living level opens dramatically toward the Pacific, with sunlight pouring across French white oak floors and porcelain finishes. The kitchen pairs sleek Italian cabinetry with premium Thermador appliances, while walls of glass frame the ocean beyond. Step outside with morning coffee, gather friends for dinner, or watch the sky change over the water.
For entertaining, the custom 450-bottle wine room, finished with Italian glass, is ready for favorite vintages and special occasions. A separate bedroom and bath on the lower level provide privacy for guests and also work beautifully as an office, media room or retreat.
Walk downstairs and the beach is at your doorstep. Surf, swim, run or bike The Strand whenever the mood strikes. Downtown Manhattan Beach shopping and dining are minutes away by bicycle, while the restaurants, cafés and neighborhood character of the North End are an easy stroll from home.
More than a beautifully remodeled Strand residence, this is an opportunity to live the ultimate beach life, bask in the light and the unmistakable Pacific Ocean rhythm of Manhattan Beach.
