This is the one people picture when they say they want to live front and center, on the beach! Set directly on the Strand in the heart of Hermosa Beach, this unfurnished 1,300 sf 2 bed, 1.5 bath unit offers a front row position to one of the most sought after coastal stretches in Southern California. Morning walks, mid day surf, and sunset dinners along the water are not weekend plans here, they are part of daily life. This lower level unit puts you in a position most people spend years working toward. Step outside and you're on The Strand. Coffee, dawn patrol, a breakfast burrito, and you're back home before your first call. What makes this one stand out is the private outdoor space. Each unit in the building has its own exclusive use patio, something that's rarely offered on the Strand where outdoor areas are often shared. Here, you have your own space to unwind, host, or simply take in Strand life. You also have your own washer and dryer inside your unit! Inside, the living space is open and comfortable, anchored by a fireplace and connected to a large, functional kitchen with updated appliances, including a dishwasher and trash compactor. Another bonus is all the storage that's built into this unit! The layout works whether you're coming home after a long day or having friends over before heading out to dinner just a few blocks away. Both bedrooms are well sized, giving you flexibility for guests, a home office, or a roommate without compromise. The large main bedroom has two large closets with mirrored doors. There are ceiling fans in the unit. In unit, full-sized laundry included. You're right in the middle of Hermosa's tight-knit beach community, with restaurants, shops, and the Pier all within reach, while still having a space that's close, but not too close, allowing for some slowing down when you need it. For the person who wants to live well, close the laptop, step outside, and feel like it all paid off, this is it. Available now. Call regarding pets. Tenant pays all utilities except water/trash. Virtual tour: lower level unit. Furnishings seen are from past tenant. Will be delivered unfurnished.
