417 Paseo De La Playa – Once In a Lifetime Property in the Hollywood Riviera
While the price is staggering for this are of the South Bay, there’s no disputing that the home (s) being sold at 417 Paseo De La Playa are pretty incredible. The lots along Paseo De La Playa are already huge as they extend all the way to the beach but in this case there’s not one, but two separate parcels for sale. What also makes this compound type property unique is the beach access. It can take years to go through the California coastal process of trying to get beach access and it’s often denied. In this case there’s not only beach access but a private volleyball court! Here’s information from listing agent Chris Adlam of Vista Sotheby’s International.
With over 62,000 square feet of beach-front property on TWO SEPARATE PARCELS, this dramatic compound is almost impossible to duplicate. The main house (417 Paseo de la Playa) is over 10,000 square feet of exquisite living area, and the “companion house” (421 Paseo de la Playa) has over 5,500 square feet. Both homes are located behind gated entrances, both with direct access to the sand, a spectacular pool & spa, a private sand volleyball court, and a large yard. The views span from Palos Verdes through the beach cities, including the entire Santa Monica Bay.
The Changing Face of Paseo De La Playa in the Hollywood Riviera
For lack of a more refined way of putting it….Paseo De La Playa in the Hollywood Riviera is probably one of the coolest streets in the South Bay. With enormous lots that extend all the way to the sand at Torrance Beach, panoramic ocean views and stunning queens necklace views, these homes offer it all. Unlike the beachfront homes of the Manhattan and Hermosa Strand, homes on the west side of Paseo De La Playa offer stunning ocean and coastline views by day, stunning sunsets in the evening and incredible ocean/city lights at night. Most of the homes along the street were tract type houses built in the 1970s with very much a Brady Bunch look and feel. That’s all changed in the last few years with 7 of the homes having extreme makeovers. See the current homes for sale on Paseo De La Playa in the Hollywood Riviera.
Is $2,000,000+ the New Normal for High End Homes in the Hollywood Riviera?

It wasn’t long ago that most homes for sale in the Hollywood Riviera were priced around $1,000,000 with only the truly spectacular reaching towards the $2.0M mark. Those days have past with $2,000,000+ being the new normal for big views and the abundance of high end flips in the area.

Multiple Homes for Sale on Camino De Encanto in the Hollywood Riviera
By Keith Kyle
It’s not often that we see homes come on the market in the lower Hollywood Riviera neighborhood that’s west of Palos Verdes Blvd. Occassionally we see a home or two and more often than not, there is nothing on the market in this area. What makes this part of the Hollywood Riviera so great is that it’s walking distance to Torrance Beach and not far from the downtown shopping and dining area of Riviera Village.
That certainly couldn’t be further from the case at the moment as there are 4 homes for sale on Camino De Encanto in the Hollywood Riviera.
There are current 4 homes on the market and all are within a 1/2 block. This is pretty unheard of an probably not ideal for any of the homes as when buyers have options….they want to negotiate.
