Luxurious Ocean View Walk-Street Home...Steps to Town & Sand!

Year Purchased: 1986

Why the Owner Chose Manhattan Beach

Manhattan Beach is a very unique beach town that combines the best of "Uptown Chic" with "Small Town Values"...and is just minutes from LAX! You couldn't be more centrally located to the 405 freeway, the Pacific Coast Highway, and all of the major attractions that Los Angeles has to offer! Having grown up in a suburb of LA, as wonderful as it was...you had to have a car to exist. When I moved to the beach, I wanted a location that not only provided excellent views of the ocean...but would be within steps to the beach and town. Being on this highly sought after south side walk- street location, it combines the best of all worlds. There is no need for a car to fully enjoy this beach or the town with over 40 restaurants and shops...all within walking distance.

The Unique Benefits at this House

You will find this home loaded with every "goodie" imaginable. Being a gadget geek myself...there is everything imaginable in the kitchen, not to mention Stereo surround throughout the house with a loaded IPOD, CD and DVD library, Premium Cable,WII with Fit & games, and TV's with DVD or VCR's in every room! Not only is there wifi, secure fios connection, printer, copier...but I also provide a laptop as well! For the low tech - you will find numerous board games, books, and current subscriptions to over 10 magazines! If I don't have it...just let me know, and chances are I'll get it for you!

 

Owner's Map of Manhattan Beach

Hello, and Welcome! My name is Terry, and I am a 4th Generation Californian. After a Complete Remodel 5 years ago, and a decision to leave the hectic world of Advertising behind...I decided to take a leap and rent my property for "vacation" purposes. This is a full time job for me, and one that I take great pride in being the best I can be. I love making my guests feel at home, and strive to make sure that they are as happy as they can possibly be.
I hope to see you soon!
Terry

    • Leaving this wonderful place in the great town of Manhattan Beach with perfect weather was hard on all of us! Terry is a loving and caring hostess, sweet, thoughtful and fun to know. Her decorative touches thruout the house, especially the fresh flowers in every room are truly delightful! The kitchen is wonderful, everything we could think of was there and at the ready, so many great meals were whipped up during our stay. Also, the local restaurants were quite good and Terry is ready and prepared to help you with choices for the best eateries - all within walking distance. Don't miss the Tues. Farmer's Market! And the beach....truly one of the nicest beaches EVER, clean, white sand and lots of animal activity to watch. We are surely planning on coming back and doing it all over again, simply perfect!

    • Our grown family of six had a wonderful experience staying here and we all left with a collection of very nice memories of our Christmas week holiday in Manhattan Beach. The house is perfect; beautifully decorated and welcoming. There is sufficient space for everyone to have some privacy when desired. Plus, the fabulous weather exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to an encore.

    • My wife, daughter, and I just spent a wonderful week in Manhattan Beach at this spectacular place. It is super convenient to everything you will want to do - great restaurants, bars, beaches, and bike paths are all outside your door - your hosts will be kind, helpful, and most accommodating - we highly recommend this spot for a short or long term stay! We'll be back for sure!

    • We enjoyed a wonderful summer week in this beautiful home along with several grown up children. It was a perfect vacation for everyone - surfing, biking, rollerblading, great restaurants and shopping and of course the most beautiful beach steps away. Terry made our stay so special and, as other people have commented, was the most wonderful hostess. She was so thoughtful and caring and made sure that our every need was met. It was a terrific rental and much enjoyed by us all. We definitely hope to return.

    • We enjoyed a fabulous week in this home earlier this month. All furnishings and accomodations were first class, and Terry was on hand to help with anything we needed. The beach was picture perfect and easy to get to. Loved the nearby restaurants and shopping. We were all sad to leave! Thanks, Terry!

    • We had a mini family reunion at Terry's place for my niece's LMU graduation two years ago, and again this May for nephew's LMU graduation. What a perfect place for families to gather and celebrate! The spacious house has spectacular views and is ideal for cooking together, breaking away to read or nap on the two decks, checking your email in the office loft (overlooking the ocean) and listening to great music on every level. Terry has created and maintained a beautiful and relaxing vacation spot in the middle of the fabulous Manhattan Beach. A welcomed break from the clouds and rain Seattle!

    • We had the pleasure and privilege of staying in this luxurious home for two weeks in January 2008. We had a phenomenal time there and would return at our next opportunity! Terry and Steve were fabulous hosts and were extremely interested in making our stay the best. I, my wife, and my three girls had a blast at "Miss Terry's place". It was perfectly convenient to everything we enjoy in Manhattan Beach, but has a secluded feel and is quiet and peaceful at the same time. We love our new California home away from home!

    • All the comments I read on this page were true! We came from Germany and stayed for four weeks. Terry was as great a hostess as I thought she would be when I read this homepage, the house has all possible amenities and a great view, the refridgerator was stocked when we came in at night and whenever we lacked anything, Terry got it immediately. The house is well worth the rent as you get many more things along with it that are actually priceless. Do it like me, talk to fomer renters if you think this is too good to be true!

    • Well what a wonderful surprise to find this jewl of a property on a recent business trip to LA. As the owner of a top rated villa rental in the Carribean Villa Cabofino look me up in the DR. I can tell you what it takes to make someone feel right at home not easy. Terry has put her heart and soul into this house and it is top of the line with everythig as she has thought of everything for your comfort. As a host,she is a wealth of information and goes the extra 10 miles to make your stay memorible. This rental and Terry get a five star rating from me and my highest reccomedation. If LA is your destination then your home should be at Terry's. Have Fun James
