Property Description

"The Ultimate Offering on American Martyrs' Most Coveted Cul-De-Sac Street." Recently appraised at 5 million. Rare, once-in-a-generation opportunity to build your legacy dream home on arguably the absolute best, most exclusive cul-de-sac block in Manhattan Beach. This oversized 6,327 SF south-facing pool sized lot is ready to be reimagined to capture views of the Pacific, Catalina Island and Palos Verdes Peninsula from your future custom designed beach home. Located in the highly sought-after American Martyrs pocket of the South Bay, this neighborhood is legendary for its low turnover and extreme exclusivity. This specific street represents the "Holy Grail" of coastal living, blending the tight-knit neighborhood vibe of the Tree Section with the walkability of the vibrant Sand Section. Properties on this tightly held street rarely hit the open market. Boasting an exceptional 84 Point Walk Score, you can leave your car behind. Just a 1-minute stroll to the Greenbelt and Live Oak Park—complete with lit tennis and basketball courts, sports fields, a dog park, and a children's playground. Sidewalks lead directly to top-tier schools, including Pacific Elementary and the American Martyrs campus. Enjoy effortless access to downtown's premier restaurants like Arthur J & Fishing with Dynamite or go casual with The Kettle or Uncle Bills, shop tons of trendy boutiques, or a night on the town, Manhattan has a reserved yet vibrant nightlife scene. A short stroll directly down 17th Street drops you onto the Strand, hit the beach or the iconic Manhattan Beach Pier. Whether you choose to enjoy the existing home's character, execute a modern remodel, or build your custom coastal oasis from the ground up, this legacy location is truly unbeatable. Do not miss this opportunity.
