A Number of Condos Listings Hit the Market in Seascape One Redondo Beach
By Keith Kyle
There’s been a definite lack of inventory in the world of ocean view and ocean front condos in Redondo Beach over the past 18 months. Prices have risen dramatically as inventory dipped to record lows and demand for the “vacation” style feel of complexes such as the Seascape buildings, The Village and condos on the Esplanade have continued to grow. At least in one complex there’s been a higher than usual number of homes coming on the market in recent days. Seascape One is located in the 200 block buildings of The Village (which is unusual in itself as it’s actually on Catalina). As of July 18th there are 3 units for sale in Seascape One. Of the 3 2 offer a interior garden view (this is the only Seascape or Village building offering interior facing units) and one offers some pretty significant ocean and harbor views. Built in 1978 the condos are fairly ideally located just behind King Harbor and walkable to the pier, the beach, and the shops and restaurants of the King Harbor area.

complex just east of King Harbor. It offers some resort type amenities with a hotel style pool and exercise facility, and is ideally located walking distance to just about everything. What’s perhaps the best aspect may be the prices. Each building consists of primarily 619 square foot one bedroom condos and due to the angular patios almost all have some type of ocean view. Each building also offers 2 studios on the easternmost part of each floor, and 2 bedroom condos, which rarely become available, on the westernmost, ocean facing side of the buildings. The Village consists of 6 larger 3 story (they’re actually 4 or 5 levels depending on garages but 3 floors of condos) buildings and 3 buildings with townhome type units. According to
