The story
Set along one of Manhattan Beachs most coveted Walk Streets, 429 20th Street presents a thoughtfully designed coastal residence where elevated living meets a distinctly wellness-driven lifestyle. Framed by an expansive front yard that opens directly to the Walk Street with ocean views, the home offers a rare sense of space, privacy, and connection to its surroundings, creating a setting that feels both vibrant and serene. Outdoor living is at the forefront, with multiple zones for gathering and relaxation. A covered patio with integrated ceiling heaters allows for year-round dining, while the adjoining side yard extends the sense of openness. A private wellness retreat with a barrel sauna and cold plunge introduces a level of intentional living rarely found, seamlessly blending recovery, design, and lifestyle. The main level is functional and thoughtfully composed, with two secondary bedrooms offering flexibility, including a front-facing room with wood detailing, built-ins, and pocket doors that easily transition between bedroom, office, or studio. La Cantina doors line the wall, filling the interiors with light and reinforcing the indoor-outdoor connection. A concealed laundry room, full bath, and a two-car garage accessed through a custom mudroom enhance functionality, while a secondary side entrance provides access from the cul-de-sac. Upstairs, the home unfolds into a light-filled living environment defined by clean lines, warm materials, and thoughtful scale. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas are designed for everyday living and entertaining. A custom plaster fireplace anchors the living room, complemented by built-ins and sliding glass doors that open to a terrace. The kitchen features premium appliances, PaperStone countertops, and designer tilework, while the dining area offers built-in seating and a relaxed coastal feel. Privately positioned, the primary suite overlooks the Walk Street and features dual custom closets, a terrace, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, glass shower, and private water closet. Aligned with modern living, the home includes a fully electric infrastructure, solar power, and dual Tesla Powerwalls, along with room-by-room climate control and integrated audio. Additional highlights include a garage gym setup, two EV charging stations, and surfboard storage. Just moments from the beach and downtown Manhattan Beach, 429 20th Street balances design, functionality, and lifestyle with a sense of ease.
