Listing of the week
This is 1501 9th st. Manhattan Beach, CA 90266 listed by Ed Kaminsky of Shorewood Realtors (he is also the owner of this home) MLS# S09036177
Features:
6 bedrooms, 6 baths and 4 half baths, 8,549 square feet of house, and 12,300 square feet of land (about a lot and a half). It has an amazing pool and spa, outdoor living room, outdoor kitchen, movie theater, game room, gym, and so much more.
My personal opinion is this: It is an amazing house, I have personally been inside of it 2-3 times and there is so much detail and quality put into the building of this home it is amazing. The floor plan is very different than your normal homes over there because of the size of the lot. It is a very heavy Tuscan themed estate and they stay true to that theme through out, personally it is not my favorite style but they did a great job representing it.
It reminds me of the house on 13th st. and the strand (north corner) that is a very heavy Italian style house, and a lot of people hate it but those who know what it cost to build know that they spent a fortune on that place much like Ed did here. I know Ed did not build this house to turn around and sell a year later and anytime someone builds a house from themselves there is a great possibility that not everyone will like it. So if you do not like then don’t buy it.
Now technically speaking the biggest issue with this house is its location, it sits on the north east corner of Peck Ave. and 9th st. the house is way too big compared to its neighbors and really belongs in the hill section or over by Longfellow and Terraza place in east manhattan.
Its a BIG beautiful house that is really nicely done but is going to have a lot of trouble because of its location and size in realtion to the rest of the homes in the area I feel like its an easy guess to say it will be for sale for a while at this price.
