There are homes that sit near the beach and then there are homes that actually live  the beach.
89 Bayview is the latter.

Priced at $5,699,000, this is the kind of property that quietly checks every rational box...location, construction quality, layout, views, while also delivering something harder to quantify: the rhythm of Manhattan Beach life as it’s meant to be lived.

Mornings Start with Salt Air and Good Coffee

At 89 Bayview, mornings tend to begin the same way: ocean air drifting in through the windows, soft light hitting the white oak floors, and the sound of waves somewhere just below street level.

You’re one block above the white sandy beaches here. Close enough to hear the surf, just removed enough for privacy and calm. Grab a board, take a barefoot walk down to the Strand, or make the easy stroll north toward downtown for coffee at Verve Coffee or Caffe Luxxe or a morning bike ride to Sloopy's Beach Cafe for breakfast. No car. No rush. Just routine.

That’s really the magic of this location, it feels effortless.

A Home Rebuilt for How People Actually Live

This isn’t a cosmetic remodel pretending to be new. 89 Bayview is 95% new construction, extensively rebuilt with all-new windows, doors, custom cabinetry, plumbing, electrical, fire sprinkler system, mechanical systems, heater, and A/C. The kind of behind-the-walls investment most buyers never get to see.

The home offers 2,143 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, and the design is refreshingly practical without sacrificing style.

Wide-plank 9-inch white oak floors run throughout, layered with clean architectural lines, curated tilework, and understated materials that feel coastal without trying too hard. A standing seam metal roof and modern sectional wood garage door give the exterior a quiet confidence that fits the neighborhood perfectly.

The Top Floor Changes Everything

The story really unfolds upstairs.

The entire top level was structurally redesigned with steel beams to create a fully open great room. The kind of volume and flow you rarely see in townhome living. It’s bright, expansive, and built around what matters most here: the view.

From inside and from the 24' x 7' deck finished in custom porcelain tile, you get panoramic, unblockable views stretching across the Pacific, Palos Verdes, Catalina Island, and the kind of sunsets that stop conversations mid-sentence.

The kitchen plays its role perfectly: Thermador appliances, Dolamite quartz counters, a peninsula with bar seating, designer lighting, and clean sightlines that keep everyone connected whether you’re cooking, entertaining, or just watching the horizon shift colors at dusk.

A fireplace anchors the room, while glass railings keep the architecture crisp and the views uninterrupted.

Thoughtful Design Where It Matters Most

The layout works because it was designed with intention.

The main entry level offers direct access from the two-car garage and a true primary retreat; quiet, private, and designed as a sanctuary with a spa-style bath, fully built-out custom closet, and its own stacked washer/dryer.

Downstairs, two additional bedroom suites each feature beautifully finished baths, custom closets, and access to a private rear patio — ideal for guests, kids, or the work-from-home flexibility most people want now.

Why Bayview Feels Different

Bayview isn’t just another walk street.

Positioned at the apex of a convex-shaped block between First and Homer, 89 Bayview benefits from something buyers always feel but rarely articulate: more light, more openness, and better natural privacy. The view corridors widen. The sun lingers longer. It simply feels better.

And the lifestyle here is dialed in perfectly between both downtowns — about a half-mile north to Manhattan Beach’s restaurants and shops (think fine dining at The Arthur J, a casual burger at Ercoles, traditional seafood fare at Fishing With Dynamite, a gorgeous sunset happy hour at The Strand House) and roughly a mile south to Hermosa’s more laid-back energy.

89 Bayview is quintessential Manhattan Beach living. Park the car and leave the keys. 

It’s the kind of home that works on paper, and even better in person: rebuilt nearly from the ground up, intelligently designed, and positioned in one of the most beautiful pockets of the Sand Section.

But more than that, it’s a home that feels right the moment you walk in; relaxed, elevated, and effortless.

And around here, that’s pretty much what it’s all about.
