Newly built and thoughtfully designed, 1721 2nd Street blends contemporary architecture with timeless finishes, exceptional scale, and seamless indoor-outdoor living in the heart of Manhattan Beach.
Entering through the oversized front door, the home immediately reveals its sense of scale. A double-vaulted entry creates a striking first impression, while sightlines extend through the open-concept main level to the rear yard, offering an immediate connection to the home’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The main level unfolds through a thoughtful floor plan defined by 10-foot ceilings, expansive proportions, and walls of glass framed by oversized Marvin windows.
To the right, the formal dining room offers an elegant setting for large-scale entertaining, comfortably accommodating a table for 10 or more. From there, the layout flows into the kitchen and living spaces, designed to encourage connection while maintaining a refined sense of space. At the center of the home, the kitchen is both functional and well-appointed, anchored by a 10-foot Perla Venata quartzite island crafted from a single slab. Custom natural oak cabinetry pairs with a full suite of premium appliances, including a 48-inch Wolf six-burner range, Sub-Zero column refrigerator and freezer, Sub-Zero full-height wine storage, dual dishwashers, and a Cove microwave. A secondary dining area sits adjacent, offering flexibility for casual meals and opening directly to the backyard through oversized LaCantina sliding doors.
The main living room balances scale with warmth, featuring a statement fireplace, custom built-in cabinetry, and LaCantina glass sliding doors that open to the rear yard. Just beyond, a 400-square-foot covered outdoor living room with its own fireplace creates an additional gathering space, seamlessly extending the interior footprint and enhancing the home’s year-round livability. A custom outdoor kitchen with a built-in BBQ and refrigerator further elevates the space. Also on the main level is a forward-facing versatile bedroom with an ensuite bath and generous closet space, along with a powder room and a custom-designed mudroom with built-ins that connects directly to the oversized three-car garage, complete with an oak garage door and backup battery system.
Upstairs, the private living quarters offer both comfort and versatility. Three secondary bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms, spacious closets, and abundant natural light, are thoughtfully positioned across the level. An oversized loft or secondary family room, framed by massive windows, provides a bright and inviting space to gather, lounge, or work, set apart from the main level. Privately situated behind double doors, the primary suite is designed as a true retreat. Generous in scale, the room features a statement fireplace and direct access to a private rear-facing terrace. The spa-like ensuite bath is finished in a blend of natural stone and porcelain tile and includes a glass-enclosed shower, freestanding soaking tub, dual vanities, and a large custom walk-in closet.
Throughout the home, elevated materials and craftsmanship define the interiors, from wide-plank white oak hardwood flooring and custom oak doors to highly curated stone and tile work. Perla Venata quartzite and natural stone surfaces continue throughout, complemented by Brazo and Delta fixtures that add a refined finishing touch. Modern living is enhanced by a fully integrated smart home system, including built-in audio with zoned surround sound, lighting control, and security cameras with mobile access. Additional features include solar panels and a fire sprinkler system for added efficiency and peace of mind.
Defined by its open-concept layout, high quality finishes and effortless indoor-outdoor connection, 1721 2nd Street presents a rare blend of modern sophistication, intentional living, and elevated coastal lifestyle in one of Manhattan Beach’s most sought-after locations.
