About this property
Bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed, 1245 8th Street pairs open living with effortless indoor-outdoor flow on a quiet cul-de-sac street. Beyond double entry doors, a dramatic double-height foyer introduces the home and leads upstairs to the main living level. High ceilings, oversized windows, and abundant natural light define the open living space, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, front-facing reading nook, and balcony. The kitchen and dining areas flow naturally together, featuring generous waterfall quartz countertops, breakfast bar, newer stainless steel appliances, a marble backsplash, freshly painted cabinetry, smart dimming light switches, and clear sightlines throughout the main living spaces. Privately positioned at the rear, the primary suite features custom oversized sliding doors opening to a private terrace overlooking the backyard, with direct stair access outside. The primary bath is appointed with dual sinks and an oversized glass-enclosed rainfall shower with multiple showerheads and customizable temperature and pressure controls. The lower level includes two generously sized bedrooms, abundant built-in storage, a laundry area, and a full bath with tub. Newly installed central A/C throughout, along with a spacious two-car garage offering additional storage and an EV charging outlet, adds everyday convenience. Outside, the low-maintenance backyard is designed for dining and entertaining with site-tailored black concrete patio framed by mature palm trees, surround sound speaker system, and built-in bench seating with a gas fire pit. A standout feature of the home is its seamless coastal accessibility. 8th Street serves as an uninterrupted corridor leading directly west toward the Pacific Ocean. From the elevated setting, head west from the driveway across PCH, past the scenic Hermosa Valley Greenbelt, and continue directly to the world-famous Strand and sandy shoreline. Blending light-filled interiors, inviting outdoor spaces, and exceptional access to the coast, 1245 8th Street offers an effortless setting for the Hermosa Beach lifestyle.
