Bank owned homes and short sales are few and far between these days in Redondo Beach, but they do still occasionally present themselves. The home at 508 North Irena in South Redondo just came on the market and it is a detached townhome with great square footage and in fantastic condition.

When people think of life at the beach…they think ocean front. Unfortunately that idea is out of the price range of most people. Fortunately Redondo Beach has an option and it may be more affordable than you think. There are many options ranging from multi million dollar oceanfront estates, to the bluff top homes of Paseo De La Playa, to affordable condos that make life feel like a vacation!
This home recently sold for over our list price.
If you’re searching for the quintessential beach cottage…. welcome home. This warm and inviting Manhattan Beach single level home is as charming on the inside as it is from the outside and has been extensively upgraded and expanded and embraces the feeling of life at the beach. From the moment you enter the home you are surrounded by a design inspired by coastal living and the beach lifestyle. Perfect for entertaining, the kitchen opens directly to the living, family and dining areas and offers direct access to the private patio and backyard. Features include oak hardwood floors throughout, beautiful gas fireplace, remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry and granite counters, remodeled bathrooms, expanded bedrooms, beautiful front and rear yards, partially covered patio, 2 car garage and so much more. The home was expanded in the last few years and the owners took great pride in making every space larger and more livable. Both guest bedrooms are large and bright and the master suite enjoys a walk in closet, beautiful bath, recessed lights and direct access to the backyard patio. All this and Meadows elementary just 2 blocks away.
It wasn’t too long ago that most buyers had heard all of the horror stories involved with and wouldn’t go near them. In many conversations I explained to buyers that if they were looking for a “deal” a short sale was definitely the way to go. Unfortunately that just doesn’t seem to be the case any longer as short sale inventory is way down and anything initially priced below market value is quickly in escrow with multiple offers and most seem to be selling at numbers much closer to market value. According to Keith Kyle, a South Bay short sale specialist, “it’s a combination of lower inventory and a much more streamlined short sale process in which most short sales are going through. No longer are buyers overly cautious about potential short sales taking 6 months or more like they had in the past.” While short sale may not be the bargain they once were, they still are the likeliest source of well priced homes if and when you can find them.
