Real estate and homes for sale in Torrance CA

Home of The Week – 425 Paseo De La Playa

by

One of our absolute favorite locations in all of the South Bay is Paseo De La Playa along the bluffs of the Hollywood Riviera. There are a very limited number of homes here and it’s truly a showcase location.

This is an unbelievable location as the lots/homes are not only oceanfront but the lots are huge and extend all the way down to the beach.  As 425 Paseo De La Playa is one of the lower homes the slopes is a bit more mild and they’ve been able to build a path down to the beach (which is a VERY challenging step for homes without a path as it require California Coastal approval….which they don’t do).   The home at 425 is on a 28,000+ foot lot!  Pretty unheard of in the South Bay and certainly unheard of for a beachfront home.

  • Price:  $10,000,000
  • 3 bedroom
  • 3.5 bath
  • 2,640 square feet

Want an even easier way to search for oceanfront homes in the South Bay and Palos Verdes?  Tell us just a bit about your ideal home and we’ll customize a search just for you and send you email alerts whenever a new home hits the market.  Never miss a new listing in the Hollywood Riviera again.

Contact Redondo Beach realtor Keith Kyle with Vista Sotheby’s International for more information.

Homes We Like – 4079 Bluff Street, Torrance, CA 90505

by

We’re always suckers for Cape Cod and Craftman homes but this is one we really liked. 4079 Bluff Street is basically a smaller beach bungalow done right. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and just under 1,400 square feet on an almost 5,000 foot lot. Originally built in 1948 it’s undergone a great transformation with a bright and beachy look and interior. They did a great job in keeping some of the original feel while both modernizing it and giving it far more charm. Listed with Nicole Reis of Palm Realty the home just came on the market at $1,175,000.

Contact us for more information or for a private tour.

Torrance Real Estate Recap – 2018 Year in Review

by

By Keith Kyle

2018 was a banner year for real estate in Torrance CA. Demand was extremely high and prices continued to rise throughout the year with a slight drop towards the winter months which is not unusual.  The number of homes for sale really ramped up after spring from a low of 76 homes on the market in January to a high of 167 homes for sale in July.  There were 1,195 residential “on market” home sales in Torrance for the year.  These statistics do not include the homes in the Hollywood Riviera with Redondo mailing address but actually in Torrance.

Homes Selling At or Above Asking Price

One extremely impressive indicator of just how strong the market remained through the year was the % difference between list price and sold price (how close the sellers were to full asking price).  In seven of the months the average home sold at, or above the average list price and in the remaining 5 months they were within a percent or 2 of full list price.  That’s a sign of an extremely seller friendly market.

Days on Market Very Low

Another solid indicator was the average days on market with only topped 30 days once….in January of 2018.  Median prices for the year generally overed between $700,000 and $800,000.
