Just moments from the shore, this 1, 735 sq. ft. residence offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, designed for both relaxation and functionality. At the end of the day, unwind on your private rooftop patio, where ocean views, gentle breezes, and a daybed set the scene for sunset gatherings or quiet stargazing. The open-concept great room, with vaulted ceilings, built-in speakers, and a wall-mounted TV, provides an inviting space for entertaining, with newer Anderson French doors that open to a cozy patio, enhancing the home's seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Roman shades add a contemporary touch, while the original plantation shutters are conveniently stored in the garage if preferred. The kitchen, fully equipped with stainless and glass-front appliances, is as stylish as it is functional, encouraging effortless cooking and hosting. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat, offering a private patio, vaulted ceilings, and a cozy gas fireplace. With a wall-mounted TV and built-in speakers, it's a space designed for ultimate comfort. The en-suite bathroom, complete with dual shower heads and an atrium window, creates a bright, fresh ambience. Two additional bedrooms offer their own unique appeal. The front bedroom opens to a patio through French doors and offers peek-a-boo ocean views, vaulted ceilings, and plantation shutters. The back bedroom features a walk-in closet with organizers, a loft area for added character, vaulted ceilings, and plantation shutters. The upstairs hall bath adds a touch of luxury with an oversized tub and stone wall detailing. Practical amenities make this home as convenient as it is charming. An upstairs laundry closet with a washer and dryer, a downstairs powder room, and a mudroom with ample storage and washer/electric dryer hookups cater to everyday needs. The direct-access, 2-car garage is equipped with an EV charger, a refrigerator, and built-in storage cabinets--an ideal setup for an active, beach-oriented lifestyle. An outdoor cubby provides extra storage for beach essentials, making it easy to grab what you need and head out for a day in the sun. Set just a block from beach access and the 22-mile Marvin Braude Bike Trail, this home's location is a lifestyle hub. Start your mornings with surfing one of the South Bay's most sought-after breaks, a bike ride along the scenic path or a leisurely walk with panoramic views of Santa Monica Bay along iconic Esplanade Drive. Within minutes, you'll find yourself at Redondo Beach Pier, Hermosa and Manhattan Beaches, and the quaint Riviera Village, where dining, shopping, festivals, farmers markets and seasonal events bring together one of the South Bay's most charming beachside towns. Crafted for both style and durability, the townhome features SPC plank flooring throughout the main level, with travertine on the stairs, mudroom, and upstairs hall bath; wood floors in the bedrooms; and tile in the primary bathroom. The electric water heater and gas furnace provide efficient comfort, while recent HOA updates--like a newly sealed driveway and walkways (2024), exterior paint and fumigation (2023), and a new roof (2019)--add peace of mind. This townhome offers a vibrant coastal lifestyle, surrounded by the best that the South Bay has to offer. Savoring ocean views from your rooftop to heart-pounding surf and beach volleyball, or perhaps a meet-up at a local restaurant, the choice is yours for whatever mood you're in.
