Property Description
UNBLOCKABLE PANORAMIC OCEAN VIEWS FROM MALIBU TO PV. Perched on one of the most coveted walkstreet 100-block lots in Manhattan Beach, this exceptional residence offers permanent ocean views, unobstructed across the entire third floor kitchen and living areas on a 90-foot long property (BTV). The one-of-a-kind views are due to the maximum height of the home in front being several feet lower than typical in the Sand Section due to the rare original positioning of the lots. BUYER TO VERIFY Originally reimagined from the studs by renowned architect James Meyer of Lean Arch, the home embodies a clean, minimalist aesthetic with a serene, light-filled ambiance throughout. Thoughtfully designed, it features 4 bedrooms plus a good as it gets ocean view office, 4.5 baths, plus a versatile lower-level guest suite with a custom Murphy bed—which can serve as the 4th bedroom (BTV). The top floor showcases breathtaking, unobstructed west-facing views stretching from Point Dume to Catalina Island. A stunning great room seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, with expansive folding Nanawall doors opening to panoramic ocean vistas—perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the coastal lifestyle. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering ocean views, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath complete with terrazzo floors, and an oversized frameless dual shower. The lower-level guest suite is equally impressive, featuring a custom Murphy bed, walk-in closet, and a stylish beach room with an entertaining bar, mini refrigerator, and ice maker. The ensuite bath is beautifully appointed with terrazzo flooring and a frameless glass tile shower. Additional highlights include a 3-stop elevator, 6 car parking, sonos, Lutron electric blinds, and countless custom details throughout. A rare opportunity to own a design-forward coastal retreat with enduring ocean views in one of Manhattan Beach’s most sought-after locations.
