Some homes feel instantly right the moment you step inside--light, open, and calming in a way that makes life seem a little easier. This beautifully updated home in the coveted Golden Hills offers exactly that feeling. Adjacent to Hermosa Beach and moments from the sand, it's a place where everyday living becomes brighter, smoother, and more connected.

The entire top level is devoted to open-concept living, designed with a clean, modern flow that makes both daily routines and gatherings feel effortless. Here, the private primary bedroom sits quietly tucked away, creating a peaceful retreat above the rhythm of daily life. The chef's kitchen--with cooktop, double oven, stainless appliances, and granite countertops--anchors the space, inviting everything from quiet morning breakfasts to lively dinners with friends. The living room is filled with natural light and opens directly onto the balcony, where city and mountain views create a moment of calm, whether it's sunrise coffee or unwinding at sunset.

Downstairs, two large bedrooms offer space and flexibility for family, guests, work, or creative pursuits. One of them opens through sliding doors to the backyard--a serene extension of the home perfect for lounging, play, pets, or simply enjoying the South Bay breeze. Hardwood floors, recessed lighting, air conditioning, and thoughtful updates throughout elevate comfort without overwhelming the simplicity of the design. The oversized two-car garage with a full window provides options for a gym, office, or studio as life evolves.

Outside, everything you need is close: Lazy Acres for groceries, Mira Costa High School within walking distance, Valley Park, local cafes, and the beachfront paths that make South Bay living so energizing. Weekend mornings can start with a bike ride to the beach, or slow down with coffee on the balcony and a quiet moment in the yard--the ideal blend of activity and tranquility.

Light-filled, intuitive, and welcoming, this is a home where life feels grounded, easy, and full of possibility. Come feel the warmth and natural calm this home creates.
