We have a busy week in more ways than one now.
Below, you'll find several new listings (again!) around MB, a welcome early-season inventory surge.
Three of last week's new listings are already under contract (!), so if you have this idea – as a buyer – that you're early and ahead of the crowd, the bad news is: No, you're not. People are ready to go.
We're also busy with a few clients, have a bit of travel on our personal agenda here, and will be participating in the Calif. Assn. of Realtors board of directors' meetings throughout next week. With all that's going on, our reviews of new listings below are short, but we do have everything new right here.
Open house times for new listings are listed below, but you can also click SEARCHES then "Open Houses" at the top of our site, which displays all the Manhattan Beach open houses. There are also links right at the top to Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach opens.

Tree Section
1717 Pacific Ave (4br/3ba, 2200 sqft.) is a highly customized, finely remodeled midsized home in a location that's incredibly convenient to schools and walkable to downtown.
It's also got a robust, large, west-facing backyard, with endless potential.
The home calls to mind 1417 Pine (4br/3ba, 2338 sqft.), very similar in size and style, also with an anachronistic 1-car garage. They asked $3.300M and got $3.350M.
1717 Pacific is far cuter (sorry, Pine), has a better location and yard. Though it starts higher at $3.399M, the real question is: How much higher makes sense? This is an emotional and must-have property.
From the official description:
"Ideally located in the coveted Martyrs Tree Section, this residence offers unparalleled access to downtown Manhattan Beach and award-winning schools, all set on a generous 4,800-square-foot lot. Step through the Dutch front door to discover a home that exudes timeless elegance, with quality craftsmanship evident in every detail. Thoughtfully renovated in 2023, the home boasts oak hardwood floors, recessed lighting, crown molding, custom millwork, wainscoting, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and a charming wood-burning fireplace. A traditional and highly functional floor plan includes one bedroom and a three-quarter bath on the main level, with three additional bedrooms upstairs. The chef’s kitchen is a true entertainer’s dream, combining luxury and practicality with Neolith countertops, a large island with seating, and abundant storage including pull-out shelving. Premium appliances include a Thermador refrigerator, Wolf gas oven and range, Kohler faucets, and a classic farmhouse sink, perfectly blending form and function.

Two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a conveniently located laundry room complete this level.

2212 N Ardmore Avenue (4br/3ba, 2428 sqft.) is another midsized Tree Section home, offered at effectively the same price as 1717 Pacific. Warm, charming, and close to town and parks, this one is a close competitor for buyers also chasing 1717.
From the official description:

600 15th Street (7br/4ba, 3031 sqft.) is a 1960 original with plenty of old-Manhattan charm, but...
It's too small, dated and odd for one of MB's priciest neighborhoods. We really appreciated some questions from a client as to possibilities for upgrades/additions, but concluded that this is overwhelmingly likely to be a lot sale, with a new build to follow.
You all know, we love the old homes and tradition, etc. We're also clear-eyed.
So, what's a 6K lot on 15th Street worth, when a neighboring (newer) home recently sold for $12.500M? (528 15th, in June 2025.)
From the official description:
"This one’s a stunner! Timeless, New England inspired, seaside cottage on the outside. Hand-crafted details, old-word charm, and sense of artisan craftsmanship on the inside.

1652 Voorhees (4br/2ba, 1746 sqft.) was not on our broker tour list, and we're sorry not to have seen it yet.
We thought only homes in Carmel had names, but no: This one's Hummingbird Hollow. (Heart emoji.)
From the official description:
"Welcome to Hummingbird Hollow — a rare sanctuary in the heart of Manhattan Beach. Tucked behind mature, lush landscaping, this Certified Wildlife Habitat sits on an expansive 7,500-square-foot lot, offering a level of privacy and tranquility that is almost unheard of in Manhattan Beach.
