Description
Completely reimagined luxury home in Northwest Torrance. Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this approximately 1900 square-foot residence on an unusually large 8,880 square foot lot has been completely rebuilt. With thoughtfully reconfigured floor plan, the home now blends high-end design with thoughtful functionality. Wide-plank white oak floors and white oak cabinetry set a warm cohesive tone. The kitchen and living room are the heart of the home and are designed for easy living and entertaining, including a dry bar with extra cabinetry and shelves to display cherished art. The kitchen features Taj Mahal quartzite counters, a 6-burner gas range, vent hood, under-cabinet lighting, abundant storage, an oversized island with Taj Mahal quartzite counters and storage on both sides, floating shelves with integrated lighting, and a built-in breakfast nook by the window. Expansive folding glass doors open the living area completely to an almost 800 sq ft covered entertaining patio with TV hookup, creating an exceptional indoor-outdoor flow. The expansive backyard offers a large lawn plus generous hard surface area with a basketball hoop and plenty of room for play and space forr recreational vehicles. The private primary suite occupies its own wing with a walk-in closet and two additional reach-in closets, a spa-inspired bathroom offering dual sinks, under cabinet lighting, and a large, glass-enclosed shower. In a separate wing you will find 3 additional bedrooms, including one with en-suite bath, plus a third full bathroom is conveniently located in the hallway. A flexible foyer space provides room for a home office, homework space, reading nook, or play area. The laundry room offers additional cabinetry and exterior access, and a two-car oversized finished garage with epoxy floors adds storage, workshop or work-out space. Ideally located close to easy commuting with quick access to Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, and surrounded by endless shopping, dining and recreation - all within the boundaries of Edison Elementary, Magruder Middle, and North High, a trio of well regarded North Torrance schools including two consistently recognized for exceptional statewide performance. This is a turnkey home where sophisticated design meets space, functionality, and a true indoor-outdoor California lifestyle.
