About this property
There are beach houses. And then there is Manhattan West. An extraordinary expression of modern coastal living, this newer architectural residence is ideally situated in Manhattan Beach's coveted Sand Section, moments from the park, Strand, sand and ocean. Designed by acclaimed architect Michael Lee, with sophisticated interiors by Beverly Hills–based Paula Testa, the home blends California modernism with a distinctly elevated coastal sensibility. Spanning approximately 2,745 square feet across three thoughtfully designed levels, the residence offers four en-suite bedrooms, five bathrooms, an elevator and parking for up to six vehicles—an exceptional luxury at the beach. Prominently positioned mid-block, the home captures sweeping ocean views from Malibu to Palos Verdes. Two expansive indoor-outdoor balconies showcase the spectacular coastline, while a dedicated BBQ terrace adjacent to the kitchen creates an effortless setting for entertaining. Every detail has been considered, from the beautifully appointed kitchen with custom built-out drawers and intelligent storage to the dining room's designer display cabinetry. Unexpected architectural vignettes throughout provide intimate spaces for working, reading, wellness or quiet retreat. Imported designer lighting with layered dimmer controls creates a sophisticated ambiance throughout. Additional highlights include Josh.ai smart home automation, solar readiness, a thoughtfully outfitted garage and an oversized laundry room. Meticulously executed with exceptional attention to detail, Manhattan West balances striking contemporary architecture with warmth, privacy and everyday livability. Distinctive, sophisticated and entirely its own, Manhattan West offers a rare experience of modern coastal luxury in one of Manhattan Beach's most desirable locations.
