Old Torrance Historic Colonial Revival Lists – 1423 Post Ave

1423 Post Avenue, Torrance, CA 90501 – $1,800,000

Historic Home in Old Torrance Hits the Market For Only the Second Time Since 1923!

One of our favorite areas of the South Bay is the area of Torrance known as Old Torrance or Old Town Torrance. This was one of the original neighborhoods and many of the homes are turn of the century (20th that is!) homes that have survived the wrecking ball and are far more than tract homes built post WW2.

1423 Post isn’t quite as old as some but it’s over 100 years old and they certainly don’t make homes like this any more. This striking 1923 “post colonial revival” is quite a bit different from the usual craftsman and it’s hard not to note the dramatica columns and porch. The home has an upgraded kitchen but still retains most of it’s original charm. The home consists of a 4 bedroom home along with “guest quarters” attached to the garage. According to the listing this is only the 2nd time it’s ever been for sale since 1923!

1423 Post Ave is listed by Broker Chryste Fisher.

The home last sold in 1995 for $285,000 and the realtor has ownershp interest in the house

Historic “colonial revival” in Old Torrance listed at $1,800,000

While Old Town Torrance has it’s share of historic homes, most are smaller craftsman homes built in the early 1900s. This one is a rarity as this historic home is a colonial revival mansion with dramatic columns and a definitive style.

The home consists of a 4 bedroom main home along with “guest quarters” attached to the garage. It’s unclear if this home is designated a historic home under the Mills Act.

Listed by Broker Chryste Fisher.

The home is a colonial revival mansion and it is definitely not your typical Torrance home. While some finishes and features have been updated, primarily the kitchen, this home definitely still retains most of it’s original design from the rich dark wood doors, windows and staircases, to the wood flooring. The traditional floorplan makes for an abundance of space downstairs with 4 bedrooms up. The home is situated on a 7,000 foot lot on a fantastic Old Torrance street.
