Bungalow

Once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a rare, west-facing, ocean view property in the coveted South Redondo Beach enclave of the Avenues. Situated near what is known as the highest point around, this elevated flat lot incredibly provides ocean views from the ground floor, plus a peek at the Santa Monica Mountains. This street-to-alley lot allows for improved curb appeal of the home with the freestanding garage at the back of the property. And what a garage it is! Fit 4+ cars or even an RV and a boat in this massive, double door entry garage, surely the largest in town. Or convert part of it into an ADU, while still retaining plenty of garage space for parking. With this incredible location secured, the possibilities abound for how you will reimagine this property that has been loved by the same family for 48 years. The home was added onto many years ago so it offers an expanded floorplan that you could remodel to your style and even add on a 2nd story to maximize that ocean view. The front porch and yard beckon with a peaceful outdoor space for you to relax and unwind while feeling the ocean breeze, peeking at the ocean, and watching the sunset. Step through the entry with a whimsical porthole shaped window framing the first look at the ocean inside the home. The inviting living room is warmed by a fireplace and brightened by lots of dual-pane windows. Another opportunity to gaze out west to the ocean is in the dining room which opens to the sunny kitchen with plenty of storage space, and out to the wide side yard. Through double doors back inside, you will find a large center hall leading first to the full hall bathroom with dual sinks, abundant cabinetry, and a shower/tub combo. The 2 original bedrooms are sufficiently sized and complete with closets and windows. The 2 added bedrooms are larger, both with sliding glass doors leading out to the backyard, and 1 with a dedicated full bathroom making it the primary suite. Private and enclosed, the backyard has some grass and could be finished nicely with a patio. From the backyard, the oversized garage can be accessed by both a vehicle door as well as a pedestrian door. The current improvements have potential, however, the value is in the land. So if you would prefer to start fresh, build your dream home here instead! This is a sweet, idyllic block with lovely neighboring homes and considerable new construction redevelopment in the area. Fix up, add on, or tear down? The choice is yours, the time is now.
