Luxury Location in the Hollywood Riviera

by

425 Paseo De La Playa Redondo Beach CA

Torrance is one of the more diverse cities in the South Bay when it comes to housing options. Some of the least expensive homes can be found in Torrance as well as some of the most expensive. The highest prices are almost always found along the beachfront street known as Paseo De La Playa. 425 Paseo De La Playa has a Redondo mailing address but is actually serviced by the city of Torrance. While it’s hard to imagine a home can be a bit of a project at $12,000,000 the eventual buyer is likely to spend a healthy amount truly making this one of the more spectacular homes in the South Bay.

425 Paseo De La Playa is one of those rare legacy type homes.  Perched on the bluffs above Torrance Beach, the home offers incredible and unblockable ocean views.  The 28,000+ sq foot lot is unheard of in the South Bay and as with all of the homes along the west side of Paseo, the lots extend all the way to the beach, but this home has an enormous amount of land in front of the home as well.  The gated entry and true estate feel make for endless possibilities.While this home is in need of some updating to truly make it a legacy home, the basics are all here.

What’s Happening in North Torrance Real Estate?

by

Welcome to the market update for real estate in North Torrance.  North Torrance is the neighborhood just off of Artesia Blvd just south of the homes of Lawndale CA and Gardena.  This area has some of the more affordable single family home options compared with other parts of Torrance in some great neighborhoods.  Some of the reason for homes being less expensive than in West Torrance and Southwood is A) it’s a bit further from the beach B) the neighborhoods are closer to commercial and industrial property so there are some great small streets but they’re generally not far from busier areas and C) the schools are still great but not quite as highly rated.

Not surprisingly given the coronavirus impacts, the number of homes for sale has gone up while the number of recent sales has dropped slightly (see chart  showing the past 15 months)
