Welcome to “The Switch House” at 2821 Alma Avenue—an architecturally significant modern residence located on a serene walk street just moments from the beach. Designed by renowned firm Brooks + Scarpa in 2021, this innovative 5-bedroom, 6-bath home spans approximately 4,000 square feet and takes a unique inside-out approach to beach living. Rather than clustering open-air spaces along the exterior, this home centers around a stunning multi-use glass courtyard that anchors all three levels, bringing robust natural light and fresh coastal air deep into the interior. Large sliding glass panels and operable windows maximize indoor-outdoor flow while offering views of Palos Verdes, Malibu, and the Pacific. On the upper level, a sunlit kitchen and family room connect via a skybridge hallway to the living room. This open-air passage—flanked by ocean views—links three separate outdoor balconies that create dynamic spaces for entertaining, dining, and relaxing. With sleek, corner windows that disappear, these areas flow seamlessly into the living space, offering flexibility and privacy all at once. The home’s thoughtful floorplan includes living spaces on the top and bottom levels, while four of the five bedrooms are privately situated on the middle floor. A glassed-in elevator connects all levels, providing both ease and elegance. Sculpted aluminum screen walls on the façade provide privacy from the walk street while also catching and reflecting sunlight throughout the day, casting beautiful shadows indoors. Inspired by the homeowner’s upbringing in the lush rainforest above Oahu’s Manoa Valley, the home emphasizes natural ventilation, passive cooling, and a connection to the outdoors. Whether hosting a party that spills onto multiple balconies or relaxing in the inner courtyard under the stars, the home is a true sanctuary. Designed to harmonize with nature and community, The Switch House is a rare modern masterpiece just moments from the sand.

This exceptional beachfront property features a duplex on an oversized 3,505 sq.ft. lot along Manhattan Beach’s iconic Strand. This 33' x 105' lot is 45% larger than the typical 2,400 sq.ft. (30' x 80') Hermosa Beach Strand lot, and 30% larger than the standard 2,700 sq.ft. (30' x 90') Manhattan Beach walk street lot. The front structure features a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, while a detached rental unit sits adjacent to Ocean Drive. Between them lies a private courtyard with parking for three vehicles. Short-term vacation rentals are an option, adding further income flexibility. The property's Residential High-Density Zoning, combined with its generous lot size, offers unique development possibilities. Potential projects include constructing a luxurious single-family residence with an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or developing two large townhomes (verify with your architect). Notably, two condos on a similarly sized lot just a couple blocks south sold for a combined total of nearly $16 million, encompassing approximately 7,000 sq.ft. (4016 The Strand at $8.25M and 4018 The Strand at $7.6M).
