oothing and classic, casual and chic, this 4,093-square-foot
family-friendly home is ideally situated a few steps from the
beach yet still in the heart of town. In addition to this dream
location (325 9th St., Manhattan Beach), the five-bedroom,
five-bath property—owned by a couple with two kids—has all the ingre-
dients for a life of comfort and style.
According to architect Louie Tomaro of studio Tomaro, "a well
designed and constructed building can make an enormous impact
on its occupants." e architect adds: "Our creative designs integrate
functional spaces and flowing circulation into cohesive and intriguing
buildings. Our forward-thinking architecture emphasizes natural light
and spaces that capture views." Tomaro applied this precise approach to
this project inspired by a Cape Cod retreat.
Bathed in natural light, the dwelling is organized in three levels. e
first, which opens to a charming patio, comprises the living room with a
kitchen for indoor/outdoor entertaining, a TV room, powder room and
two-car garage. (In addition, there is a third parking spot on the side of
the house.) Front and rear staircases lead to the second floor, which is a
kids' paradise with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a den and a separate
large homework station. e entire third floor is dedicated to the master
suite, which features a spa-like bath with steam shower and private
Cape Cod-st yle meets California beach-chic in this five-bedroom house
located on one of the most desirable walk streets in Manhattan Beach.
