Welcome to the home that finally checks all the boxes—and then some! Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a commuter-friendly Torrance pocket, this expertly remodeled 4-bedroom, 2-bath home blends comfort, functionality, and modern style into one beautifully dialed-in package. Whether you're upsizing, right-sizing, or seeking a long-term investment, this one offers the kind of versatility and upgrades that make life easier—and weekends better.
This home maximizes value with a smart layout, tons of upgrades, and bonus living space! The main living area flows effortlessly from the sunny front entry into open-concept dining and a generously scaled family room—perfect for wine nights or curling up with a favorite book in front of the decorative fireplace. The newly updated kitchen features a clean, bright palette, new appliances and cabinetry, sleek countertops, and under cabinet lighting. An open-concept dining area lies just beyond. A 275 square foot bonus sunroom (not counted in the official square footage) gives you the flexibility to create a second living room, playroom, office, or workout space. A wall of windows captures views of the expansive, park-like backyard. Each of the four bedrooms offers a peaceful retreat with fresh finishes and functional layouts. The main suite features dual closets and corner windows with a backyard view. Both baths have been refreshed with clean lines and updated tile. This home isn’t just pretty—it’s built for performance; the home features paid solar (yes, paid), central A/C with Nest control, insulated exterior walls and R38-rated attic insulation, tankless hot water heater, a tuned-up roof, wide-plank flooring throughout, a dutch door entry with charm and function, and a large interior laundry room with extra storage. Step outside and discover a huge backyard that’s ready to be whatever you need it to be: a garden, gathering space, pet run, or play zone. A long gated driveway leads to a detached garage--ideally sited for an ADU conversion or studio project. It even has a secondary "backyard" behind the garage making for max income potential with a future ADU. With off-street parking for multiple cars, you’re never short on convenience. This tree-lined cul-de-sac offers privacy without sacrificing access. You're just minutes from the 405, El Camino College, the South Bay’s major job centers and shopping corridors. Whether you’re commuting or working from home, this location gives you flexibility without compromise.
