About this House

What's unique:Grand primary suiteLarge walk-in closetCoved ceilingsQuartz countertopsSpacious built-in desk areaCustom tiled backsplash
Welcome to this charming, updated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home nestled in the heart of old Torrance! Tastefully renovated and filled with character, this home boasts an updated kitchen, bathrooms, a roof that’s only a couple of years old, a newer heating and air conditioning system, and even solar panels that effectively eliminate electricity bills! The exterior has been freshly painted, and most of the interior too.

As you step inside, you’re greeted by a spacious living room that seamlessly transitions into a large kitchen/dining area. Both feature gorgeous original flooring and coved ceilings! The kitchen has undergone a stylish renovation, complete with quartz countertops, a custom tiled backsplash, appliances, and a butcher block island with bar seating. Beneath the kitchen lies a 75 sqft finished basement, complete with newly painted walls and epoxy floors. This versatile space can be transformed into a wine cellar, workshop, hobby room, safe room or any other creative endeavor you can imagine! A short hallway leads you to 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. One of these bedrooms has a spacious built-in desk area, perfect for homework or a home office, and the other bedroom has an elegant bay window. The hallway bathroom has been thoughtfully updated, providing a convenient space for family members or guests.

At the back of the home, past the kitchen, you’ll find the grand primary suite. It features its own private bathroom, a large walk-in closet, and a pair of French doors that offer direct access to the backyard. The charming patio, crafted from pavers, is nestled behind the kitchen and primary suite and features an adorable old-school brick fireplace/BBQ.

Beyond the patio lies the expansive grass yard, and a newly paved oversized driveway (can park four cars here, or even an RV or boat). The yard offers ample space for relaxation, and plenty of room for children and animals to play, complete with a play set, swing, and fruit trees. A 2-car detached garage has an auto opener, laundry facilities, which includes a new utility sink. The driveway is accessed via a remote-controlled gate for privacy.

Don’t miss out on this highly upgraded stunning gem in the heart of old Torrance!
