Weekly Caravan Recap: Pristine Cottage in Manhattan Beach

Posted on January 21, 2012 by | 1 comment

MANHATTAN BEACH PICK OF THE DAY

A busy Friday Broker’s Open Caravan Day in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach.  Whew! What a relief to have new inventory!! There were 15+ new properties to preview – including our own listing at 2401 Oak Avenue, Manhattan Beach (see pictures in our prior blog).

We simply had to write about another listing we LOVED.  This home is in the Mira Costa district – within walking distance to Mira Costa, Pennekamp and several private pre-schools.   What a beautifully remodeled and decorated property this is.  If you love the shabby chic style – this would be perfect for  you.  The house exudes “Cozy.”  From the moment you walk in the door you feel “at home”  – from the comfortable decor and floor plan – the sunroom overlooking the  backyard and a  wonderful outside living area with deep seated sofas and chairs.  This house is a Must See!

Mid-Remodel- Taking a Pulse on Progress

Posted on January 11, 2012 by | 1 comment

We are in the midst of a remodel project in the Tree Section of  Manhattan Beach, CA.  We are upgrading a post WWII 3 Bedroom, 1 Bath tract house for today’s lifestyle.  Typical layout of this era were small closed-off kitchens with large laundry rooms, 1 hallway bath, 3 bedrooms and smaller closets.  Also, they were not built with access to the backyard, other than through a side Kitchen door.  We are borrowing a little space from one of the bedrooms and are making a master suite with a door to the backyard and we have blown out the Kitchen walls to create a living-dining-kitchen area that is perfect for today’s more casual lifestyle.  Take a look at our before pictures and our mid-remodel video

be seeing you soon with updates!  If you are interested in remodeling your home and want to know what upgrades will have the largest value impact, contact us.  We are on our 143 project and have sorted out what works!

You can take a look at one of our prior projects here.
