About Manhattan Beach's East Manhattan Beach

I have many home buyers approach me about their home search in Manhattan Beach and I have to make sure that they understand that Manhattan Beach has some very different neighborhoods and each has something unique to offer. There are really 5 distinct neighborhoods in Manhattan Beach that are the sand section, tree section, hill section, Manhattan Village and East Manhattan Beach

An ideal location for families, East Manhattan Beach offers something much of the South Bayand other neighborhoods of Manhattan don't.....space. With lot sizes generally being either 50x100 or 50x150, homes in areas east of Sepulveda Blvd. often allow for larger homes and large yards. These larger lots have been of particular interest to builders in the past few years and there has been a tremendous volume of new construction homes recently. With the market having slowed and the inventory of new homes continuing to rise, the past few months has been a tremendous time to find builders willing to negotiate and sell these homes for well below their original prices.

In addition to new construction East Manhattan still offers some original "fixer" type homes and often have the lowest priced single family homes in all of Manhattan Beach. These homes may not have lasted on the market in the recent past with builders quickly buying them up, but they offer home buyers an excellent way of getting a home in a great neighborhood and in a tremendous school district. Most of these homes are 3 bedroom 1 bath homes with 1200 square feet or so. Some have been nicely updated while many have original kitchens and bathrooms and could use some work. They are often priced at "lot" value and can be a good situation for someone looking for a good home now and a lot to build their dream home on later.
