About this House

What's unique:Farmhouse sinkNew countertopsNew flooring throughoutNewer roofFormal dining areaTwo beautifully remodeled bathrooms
This extensively renovated single-story home in Torrance's Southwood neighborhood has been owned by the same family since 1964 and is on the market for the first time in over six decades. Move-in ready and updated from top to bottom, this West Torrance home features two beautifully remodeled bathrooms, new flooring throughout, and a refreshed kitchen. It offers approximately 1,504 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a detached 2-car garage at the end of a long driveway.

The heart of the home is one open, connected space. A large living room with a stone fireplace, the galley kitchen, and a formal dining area flow together. A raised counter with bar seating opens the kitchen toward the living room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. New recessed lighting runs throughout, and sliding doors off the living room lead straight to the backyard, extending the living space outdoors for entertaining, dining, or simply enjoying the Southern California weather.

A hallway separates the three bedrooms from the main living area, creating a natural divide between the home's gathering and private spaces. One bedroom includes its own elegantly remodeled ensuite bathroom, while the two additional bedrooms share the second remodeled bath. An interior laundry area adds everyday convenience.

The renovation touched nearly every part of the home. The kitchen features new stainless steel appliances, new countertops, a farmhouse sink, and a pantry cabinet for extra storage. Other improvements include a newer roof and plumbing, a new electrical panel, a new central heating system, new vinyl flooring in the main living areas, new carpet in the bedrooms, and fresh paint inside and out.

Outside, a patio and landscaped backyard with lawn and flower beds create an inviting place to relax, with views toward the Palos Verdes hillside. The detached garage offers potential for a future ADU conversion, subject to applicable requirements and approvals.

Southwood offers a true blend of coastal convenience and everyday comfort. The coastline and Redondo Beach Pier are a short drive away, and cool afternoon breezes roll in from the Pacific. Anza Elementary and Paradise Park are close by, and the home is served by the Torrance Unified School District, including West High School. Buyer to verify school eligibility. Del Amo Fashion Center, Manhattan Beach, and Hermosa Beach are all nearby.
