Manhattan Beach New Listings (9/13-9/14/25)

Now we're getting the flow of new listings that we expect in the Fall season. 

One summary we saw on the MLS said we had 13 new listings this week. Two were actually re-lists, and one is a 4-plex which would not suit most families looking for a home locally, but we'll take it – whatever the count. 

Even with all the new options, inventory is lingering in the mid-80s, meaning the market is moving while new listings emerge.

Speaking of the moving market: Hope you saw that we sold our awesome listing at 3208 Agnes, in a deal that closed quickly on Friday at $6.250M (+$355K). The link there will show you all the photos etc. as a reminder of what a singularly cool house that is. 

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.

 3212 N Poinsettia Avenue (3br/2ba, 1225 sqft.) might just be the most, and the prettiest, that you can get in a little home in Manhattan Beach. 

Redone to the nines, this fully modern property last traded for $2.850M (after multiple bids) in April 2022, just before the market seized up due to interest rate spikes.

 3213 N Valley Drive (4br/3ba, 1976 sqft.) is a tall-and-skinny home with designer charm behind recent remodeling. Even before the current design work, the home had earned a magazine feature for its backyard space.

Sand Section

 229 24th Street (5br/5ba, 4103 sqft.) is a 2009-built Spanish on a walkstreet with views to the south.

The top floor living spaces and kitchen benefit from modern updates that remain consistent with the overall Spanish/Montecito theme.

In the prime view location at the southwestern edge, there's a pleasant deck that takes full advantage.

This home has been on the market for stretches of 2023-24, at prices ranging from $8.500M down to $7.499M most recently. It's back now closer to that high ask.

From the official description:

 220 20th Street (4br/4ba, 3716 sqft.) is a nicely updated early-90s build on a great walkstreet. It benefits currently from an "under-height" neighbor to the west, enhancing its ocean views.

 2716 Highland Avenue (3br/3ba, 2057 sqft.) is a 1980s single-family with nice views, and a refreshed look. 

All 3 bedrooms are on the first living level, which is floor 2 above the garage. Two kid-sized bedrooms share a bath. The primary suite includes an artfully redone bath and contemporary feel.

Upstairs, all the living spaces are fully open, with the kitchen and dining area bumped up to get the best possible views.

This home was marketed for a month last year, at a much higher price ($3.999M), and lacking full staging. Both things are fixed this year, with a much lower price ($3.399M) and a full stage that shows off the home better.

Last year, there was also some uncertainty over views. Neighboring 2700 and 2712 Highland were on the market as a giant multi-lot offering at nearly $17M. Instead of selling, however, that property has been rented for the time being, offering a measure of view protection for 2716 Highland. 

From the official description:

"Enjoy sweeping ocean views, encompassing iconic Bruce’s Beach, the Palos Verdes peninsula, Catalina and the Manhattan Beach Pier, from this contemporary coastal retreat. Custom designed, with interiors by Transition State, this striking home has been completely reimagined. The heart of the home, located on the top level, showcases an inviting open floor plan with an abundance of natural light, wide plank white oak hardwood floors throughout, a redesigned fireplace, and a balcony with stunning beach and mountain views. The elevated gourmet kitchen features a large island, built-in wine fridge, quartz countertops, walk-in pantry, and a picturesque view of the pier from the kitchen sink. An adjacent dining area with ocean views overlooks the living room, creating a space ideal for entertaining. On the second level, the primary suite offers a private oasis, complete with its own balcony, custom closets, and a luxurious bath with double sinks, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. On the same floor are two additional bedrooms and a Jack & Jill bath. The property includes a rare 4-car garage, providing ample space for parking and storage, along with a laundry area with porcelain countertops and cabinets. Ideally located two short blocks to the beach, perfectly situated midway between downtown Manhattan Beach and North Manhattan, with easy access to a wide variety of shops and restaurants."

 557 21st Street (5br/5ba, 2710 sqft.) is a refreshed, custom home on a corner at the gateway to the Sand Section (or Tree Section) along Valley Drive. 

The floorplan fits a lot into some unusual spaces on the first floor (tracking a trapezoid-shaped lot), with creativity and decent flow. Upstairs, the bedrooms manage to be spacious and mostly conventional in shape, with only the primary bath featuring unusual angles. 

From the official description:

"This stunning 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath single family residence combines timeless elegance with an unbeatable location—just a short stroll to the sand, vibrant downtown Manhattan Beach, and the award-winning Grandview Elementary School.

 315 Marine Place (3br/2ba, 1430 sqft.) is a smartly updated little home, dating to the 1930s but with plenty of modern flourishes. They say it "lives like a duplex," owing to a separate 1br/1ba unit on the lowest level. 

Unexpected: A roof deck! As you likely know, only Hermosa allows roof decks. In MB, only an existing one is permitted, "grandfathered" in and allowed to remain.

The corner location at two alleys (Marine Place and Crest) is very close to a district where there are active proposals to remove power poles and lines – although we're not sure if this one would benefit. Worth checking, as that process unfurls. 

From the official description:

"Rare Sand Section Opportunity – Steps to the Beach with Ocean Views. Nestled in the heart of Manhattan Beach’s coveted Sand Section, this single family home lives like a duplex and offers an exceptional blend of lifestyle and investment. Just 3 blocks from the beach and award-winning Grand View Elementary School, the property features an updated 2-bed/1-bath owner’s unit with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, desk space, and modern finishes. A rare ocean-view ROOFTOP DECK captures sweeping whitewater views — perfect for entertaining or unwinding at sunset. The lower 1-bed/1-bath unit features a kitchenette in unit washer/dryer, living room and private deck. Parking includes a 1 private garage and 1 carport. Ideally located just three blocks from the beach, surf, sand, and scenic bike path, and just a short stroll to downtown Manhattan Beach’s world-renowned restaurants and boutique shops."

 200 43rd Street (4br/4ba, 1716 sqft.) is a 3-story El Porto duplex with some upgrades. 

From the official description:

"[T]his property offers the perfect blend of beachside tranquility and urban convenience. This incredible opportunity spans approximately 1,716 square feet on a 1,355 square foot lot. The layout includes two large apartments (2bd/2ba each) and a garage level that holds 4 cars and laundry. No utility poles here--they have been undergrounded!

East Manhattan Beach

 1706 2nd Street (3br/2ba, 1262 sqft.) is a newly redone little cottage with an open living area, spacious kitchen and two hallway baths.
