There is something truly special about a vintage home that has been meticulously cared for and thoughtfully updated. Offering 2,352 square feet of interior living space on a generous 4,587-square-foot lot, this home blends classic architecture with the charm of a beachside lifestyle. Character and comfort come together in inspiring fashion, featuring coved plaster ceilings, built-in china cabinets, a cozy fireplace, crystal doorknobs, and kiln-dried pine floors. The spacious, recently remodeled kitchen is ideal for family gatherings, complete with a massive eat-on island, lustrous quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, and modern stainless-steel appliances. The home includes two sumptuous remodeled bathrooms, newer windows, a stackable washer and dryer, and ample closet space throughout. Outside, the oversized lot showcases an incredible south-facing grassy yard and gracious patio, all just six blocks from the pristine sands of Hermosa Beach. There are five spacious bedrooms, two of which share a large balcony overlooking the backyard — perfect for soaking in coastal breezes. It's the modern comfort of a bygone era. Nestled in one of Hermosa Beach's most desirable neighborhoods, 640 2nd Street truly captures the essence of relaxed coastal living. As an added bonus, the property is zoned for two units, offering future development potential to build two townhomes or add a second unit and garage at the rear.
