Suddenly an Abundance of Homes for Sale in the Golden Hills

market update - the Golden hills in North Redondo beach

It’s not yet clear whether the increase in the number of homes for sale in the Golden Hills is due in larger part to timing (spring is often when we start seeing an increase in the number of homes that come on the market) or due to the slowdown that the covid impacts are having, but in the past month we’ve seen the number of active listings go from 2 up to the current 7 homes for sale.  It may also be due, in part, to the pricing as a few of the recent listings are really trying to break some records in terms of list and sales price.  The Golden Hills is somewhat unique for Redondo Beach as the neibhrohood is comprised of almost exclusively single family homes without the abundance of townhomes and condos seen throughout most of North Redondo.

Remodeled homes in Redondo Beach

$1,245,000 for an 1,880 sq foot Tall & Skinny in the Golden Hills? WOW

It looks like the market in the Golden Hills of Redondo Beach may not have peaked just yet if the home at 1809 Goodman is any indication.  Listed at $1,249,000 and closing at $1,245,000.  This appears to be a new record high sales price for anything of that size built prior to 2005.

The home was beautifully remodeled with a warm coastal feel and just about every aspect had been converted from it’s original 1983 built finishes.  Although relatively close to busier Artesia Boulevard, the home was across from a very rare open area and enjoyed tree top views most wouldn’t think possible in the neighborhood.

The only recent sale similar in age and price was located at 1411 Clark and sold at $1,235,000 back in August.  The average home price for similar homes with 1750-1950 sq feet and built before 2000 was $1,150,000 for 2018.

Ultra Hot Market in the Golden Hills of North Redondo Beach

It seems that just about every market in the South Bay is absolutely on fire, but the Golden Hills area of Redondo Beach is reaching prices that would have seemed laughable a year ago. Although we’re only 2 months into 2018 we have already seen two homes with less than 1400 feet (on the standard 25×100 foot lots) sell for over $1,000,000. In addition it’s starting to appear that the standard 1900ish square foot “tall and skinny” homes that are so frequent in the neighborhood are now quickly topping $1.1M.  See the pros and cons of the homes in the Golden Hills.  See below for information on the recent sales and listings in the Golden Hills, view the current Golden Hills homes for sale or sign up for free listing alerts to be notified when a new home hits the market.

Big Home Sale in the Golden Hills – 1107 Goodman

1107 Goodman in the Golden Hills of Redondo Beach

One of the recent sales that represented a very big number for North Redondo and the Golden Hills was the sale at 1107 Goodman.  Listed for $1,890,000 the home quickly sold at full price after just 5 days on the market.  Sitting on an oversized, 5,215 foot, lot (more than double the normal lot in the area) this was brand new construction and something very hard to duplicate in this neighborhood.  Listed by Aaron Klapper of Strand Hill Christies International this was definitely a trophy house.  Per the listing description:
Welcome to this spectacular, brand new contemporary craftsman home in the heart of Golden Hills. The living room invites you in with soaring ceilings, lots of windows, and the first of three stunning stack-stone fireplaces. The open concept leads to the formal dining area, perfect for warmly entertaining family and friends. There’s an elegant powder room, and guest suite with built-in closet cabinetry and en-suite bathroom. Moving towards the rear of the home, the stylish kitchen has a large center island with quartz counter-tops, prep sink, and drawer microwave. The deep stainless steel farmhouse sink, soft close drawers, Thermador six burner stove and hood, butler’s pantry, walk-in pantry, and breakfast nook lend to this kitchen being as functional as it is chic. The comfortable family room with fireplace has large sliding glass doors that effortlessly lead to the peaceful back yard, creating that indoor/outdoor lifestyle you crave. Head upstairs to find the serene master suite with vaulted ceiling, fireplace, multiple closets, and large sunny balcony. The luxurious master bathroom has a contemporary soaking tub, large rain shower, and skylight. There are three other bedrooms upstairs, two sharing a jack-and-jill bathroom, and the other with en-suite bathroom and balcony. Other fabulous features include high ceilings, recessed LED lighting, European white oak engineered wood floors, quartz counter-tops, 8 foot doors, and of course, sought-after Jefferson school district.
