812 8th Street

This prime Hill Section property features world-class ocean views, and an eminently walkable location! Just 10 minutes by foot will get you to the water or downtown Manhattan Beach. Enjoy it all in this lovingly remodeled home with ample family spaces, open, updated kitchen and both an ocean-view deck and private backyard patio space, surrounded by lush gardens. Make your way up to the primary suite for some of the best views in the house, from the bedroom, bath and private balcony. The main level features an oversized family room and a wide-open space with a formal living room, dining area and the kitchen. A half flight down, you’ll find two bedrooms, including one that was the former primary suite, featuring a beautifully modernized bath. Down on the lowest level is a flexible room (technically the 4th bedroom), now used as a bonus den and home office, opening out to the backyard, with turf, beautiful plants and a built-in fire pit. Now, let’s talk POTENTIAL! The highest point of the current roofline is more than four feet below the maximum allowable building height (per survey; buyer to verify). A new build on this site constructed to maximize views could offer 180-degree panoramas over the buildings in front, providing ocean views from Catalina to Malibu. Utilities were undergrounded years ago – there are no wires to block your views. We checked, and they are not making new land in the Manhattan Beach Hill Section. View lots and locations like this one rarely come available. Don’t miss this one. The clock is ticking.
