Homes in the Beach Cities and South Bay

The Oceanfront Condos of the Esplanade in Redondo Beach CA

November 15, 2021 by admin

Needless to say that much of the appeal to the South Bay has to do with it’s proximity to the ocean and all that it entails. Beautiful views, dazzling sunsets, warmer winters and cooler summers and outdoor activities of every variety. One of the cities most often thought of, especially for those relocating from other parts of the country, is Redondo Beach. Redondo Beach is the largest of the “Beach Cities” (Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach) and has the greatest number of housing options. Everything from a studio condo in the $500K range, to oceanfront estates well into the millions. If your searching for that dream of living oceanfront, you really only have a few options and almost all are on the street known as the Esplanade. The Esplanade is in the area known as South Redondo and has every housing option available. Some of the least expensive oceanfront options are the condos in one of several buildings.

  • View Current Ocean Front and Ocean View Esplanade Condos for Sale

531 Esplanade – Ocean Plaza

The first building as you head south is located at 531 Esplanade and is known as the Ocean Plaza. This building features a pool, workout room and is located on the bluffs in South Redondo. Although oceanfront, most of the units at 531 Esplanade are at an angle and do not look straight out on the ocean. While you don’t quite get the “right on top of the sand” feeling that you do in some of the other buildings….it’s generally priced a bit lower with larger homes. All units in 531 have some views with units higher up having more dramatic and unobstructed views. All units are accessible through the inside of the building which some owners like, but units are down a rather dark hallway.  View the current Ocean Plaza condos for sale

535 & 555 Esplanade

Casa Bahia actually consists of 2 addresses but from the street certainly looks like one building.  The street addresses for Casa Bahia are 535 and 555 Esplanade.  Unlike some of the other buildings along the Esplande not all of the units are oceanfront and in fact many of them are not.  Some have no views while some have partial views.  There are plenty that are oceanfront however and some are spectacular.  The lower units are pretty straightforward with oceanfront balconies above the beach.  The upper units pull back a bit as the complex has a great outdoor deck area.  It has a different feel with the builder trying to squeeze in views from rear units.  The community has an ocean view jacuzzi and a workout room.

565 Esplanade – Surfrider

Located at 565 Esplanade the Surfrider is unique architecture for the area.  Consisting of two separate buildings, the Surfrider is more than recognizable with it’s red tile exteriors.  Unlike most of the buildings on the Esplanade many of the units are “interior” or side facing condos meaning they only offer partial views at best.  There are some fantastic oceanfront units but they rarely come on the market.  The complex offers an ocean view jacuzzi and a deck area for those that don’t have the oceanfront units.  View current Esplanade condos for sale

575 Esplanade

Oceanfront units are rarely for sale at 575 Esplanade. Unlike the Ocean Plaza at 531 Esplanade, not all units are oceanfront or have views. Units range in size with units facing the street side, with no views starting in the mid $850K range and oceanfront units that have been upgraded being in the $1.3M range and up.  View current Esplanade condos for sale

615 Esplanade – The Sand Castle

This building is known as the Sand Castle and is probably the most “right on the water” oceanfront building of any of them. The Sand Castle consists of two different buildings with one in front, and lower, than the other.  The bottom two levels of the rear building somewhat obstructed or no views, but all other units and floors have panoramic ocean views. The Sand Castle really feels like a vacation and from the moment you open your door, it’s breathtaking pacific ocean views. One bedroom units often start in the mid $600K range with a close to 800 square feet, with larger 2 bedroom units pricing in the high $900k to over $1.1 range. Units are accessible from the walkway in the rear (see above picture) which would be a problem if we had weather other than sunshine, but it does make for a much more open feel. If sleeping to the sound of breaking waves is what you’re searching for….this might be the place for you.  View current Esplanade condos for sale

625 Esplanade – San Simeon

The last of the main condo complexes in South Redondo is known as San Simeon and is located at 625 Esplanade. Many of the homes in San Simeon have breathtaking panoramic views although some units are towards the back with ocean peeks at best. Prices in San Simeon generally range from the low $700Ks to well over $1,000,000.  View current Esplanade condos for sale

721 Esplanade – Oceania

Oceania only has oceanfront condos and the views here are some of the most spectacular. The bluff is up a bit higher here which makes for endless views. This is definitely what most people think of when they think of oceanfront living.  View current Esplanade condos for sale

727 Esplanade – Riviera Shores

Riviera Shores is the last building to the south on the Esplanade (there are a few single family homes to the south.  This is true oceanfront living as it’s perched highest on the bluff.  The views are incredible (the parking lot even  has spectacular views!)  There isn’t much in the way of amenities with just a jacuzzi but what does it really matter when the beach is litterally a stones throw away.  There are 1 and 2 bedroom condos with the top floor penthouse units having larger square footage.

1938 Oceanfront Beach Bungalow Hits the Market at 4104 The Strand in Manhattan

November 11, 2021 by admin

We’ve seen some impressive movement with beachfront Strand houses selling after extended (sometimes years) periods on the market.  Some of the “tear down” type properties have still struggled as sellers often see value in the home when really the value is ONLY in the land.  The latest addition to the beachfront home market on The Strand in Manhattan Beach is a vintage original beach bungalow built in 1938.    It’s very likely that this one get’s torn down and replaced with a modern luxury home but we’re always suckers for these original and classic beach homes.  The current property offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and 1984 square feet and is priced at $6,499,000.

The home is pretty far into El Porto (rebranded as “north Manhattan”)  which means values go down considerably compared with beachfront lots closer to downtown and the pier.  The location also means that it’s located behind the beach parking lot and overlooks the lot (although significantly raised up)

View the Manhattan Beach MLS info below.

  • 3 bedrooms
  • 2 bathrooms

Home Of the Week – Oceanfront Estate on Paseo De La Playa in the Hollywood Riviera

February 26, 2021 by admin

If you’ve followed us over the years you’ll know that one of our favorite locations in all of the South Bay is the oceanfront strip of homes on the Hollywood Riviera’s Paseo De La Playa.  The houses are generally all about the views, but for those rarified buyers looking for something beyond  and unlike anything else in the South Bay, the incredible estate at 417 Paseo De La Playa is worth your attention.

417 & 421 Paseo De La Playa is an incredible home (actually 2 distinct homes) listed at a price that  we just don’t often see in the South Bay.

Actually the prior sale of this property by Vista Sotheby’s International back in February of 2018 at $22,650,000 set a record at the time for a single family home in the South Bay.

It’s back for sale once again with an asking price of $22,995,000.  Originally hitting the market in December, it’s already seen a major  price reduction from the original $26,995,000.

With multiple properties each fronting the ocean, huge outdoor areas, oceanfront pool and spa this is unique to  say the least.  Consisting of two distinct homes, combined they offer approximately 15,728 square feet on a massive 1.4 acre oceanfront lot that extends to the sand and offers direct beach access down a trail.   The main home features 5 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, with the “guest” house offering 5 bedrooms and 7 baths.

Beyond the view, the outdoor amenities include an incredible pool and spa overlooking the Pacific, fire area and even a private beach volleyball court.

Views are stunning and unlike the beachfront homes of the Strand in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa  Beach the coastline views of the evening and night are equal to the incredible daytime views.

Contact us for more information on this oceanfront home

As rare as these oceanfront home sales are, this is definitely not the only oceanfront home. Check out all of the oceanfront homes currently for sale on Paseo De La Playa in theH Hollywood Riviera.
