1508 The Strand

Introducing 1508 The Strand, situated in one of the most idyllic locales along Manhattan Beach’s golden sands. This lot offers not just a home but a true lifestyle. Featuring five bedrooms and five and 1/2 baths in 5589 square feet on a 3329 square foot lot, the possibilities are as endless as the stunning views. Originally built in 1988, this residence is a canvas awaiting your dream home, whether you choose to reimagine the current structure or build from the ground up.  Upstairs, the vast Primary Suite is an owner’s dream, with glass walls looking out onto the Pacific and a protected private balcony. Imagine waking up to the sound of the waves each day, then basking in the luxury of your own private oasis with two luxurious baths and two spacious walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms on this level share a large, sunny deck and were designed with custom built-ins and cedar-lined closets, with a shared neighboring bath. Just down the hall, you'll find the added convenience of an elevator and a dedicated laundry room. The center floor is home to a sizable great room with high ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and arresting ocean views, as well as a glass-walled balcony. The kitchen takes advantage of the sand and sea landscape from a pass-through with charming, shuttered doors, and offers plenty of countertop and storage space, a separate pantry, SubZero refrigerator, and a cooktop island. A nearby powder room is perfect for visiting friends and family. Take the winding staircase to the Strand level, where a generous beach room with Saltillo tile flooring and a wet bar encompasses the entire width of the floor and opens onto the Strand. Two bedrooms and a full bath also boast Saltillo tile and create the feeling of being on vacation every day. A large bonus room with considerable storage and significant cabinetry would be ideal as an office or custom gym. Additional amenities include a four-car garage, an incredible view of the iconic Manhattan Beach Pier, and a 5-minute stroll to the vibrant shops and restaurants of downtown Manhattan Beach. With unrivaled ocean views, this is the ultimate blank slate for those with a passion for design and a vision for luxury.
