Property Description
A rare find in the coveted South Manhattan Beach Sand Section! Personality-plus beach cottage plus guest house on an extra-deep, FULL lot with two yards. Not a duplex, but an excellent single-user high-demand rental in sought-after Robinson Elementary district. Also perfect as a 2nd home, vacation rental, pied-e-terre or for those that need a guest house/in-laws quarters or separate work space. Many future possibilities and a ton of versatility! Buy at today’s discounted values and reap the benefits tomorrow – this is an ideal location for investment appreciation and/or creation of value through future expansion/development potential (with the extra lot depth, a new home can feature an uncommonly large yard – a sand section rarity that’s in high demand). Wonderful lifestyle location – walk to everything including one of the area’s most beautiful stretches of beach, the pier, the greenbelt and downtown’s vibrant shops and restaurants. Easy access to the school playground, plus extra after-hours parking in the school lot. A sound investment that beats the pants off El Porto duplexes or condos – here you have valuable land, less-congested environs and an aesthetically superior neighborhood.

No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
