From all of us at The Village Redondo Beach.com, Keith Kyle Homes and Vista Sotheby’s International we wanted to wish you and yours a happy Cinco De Mayo celebration. The gale force winds are making it a tough beach day, but I’m sure you can find a way to enjoy Cinco De Mayo 2024!
The newest additon to the beachfront condo market is located in the Ocea Plaza complex which is the tallest in South Redondo. Although the building is oceanfront, most of the units are on the north or south side of the building so the units themselves are not really oceanfront (other than a few that are on the furthest west side)
The condo is listed by Jonathan Coleman at Beach City Brokers
Unit 708 is a 2 level condo that overlooks the Casa Bahia building (which is considerably shorter) on the south side of the building which means some beautiful ocean, beach and Palos Verdes views.
Somewhat strangely the owners converted this two bedroom condo into a 1 bedroom home (big bedrooms are cool but we would not recommend making this change for other homeowners out there…..at least not for future value aspects) Having said that the one remaining primary suite is huge and the walls of windows, and oceanview deck don’t hurt. It even has 2 bathrooms….odd.
The bedroom is upstairs so the downstairs is all about kitchen, living and dining area…..with views from everywhere.
The building and amenities of Ocean Plaza feel a little bit older and outdated, but it’s just tough to be the location and with an oceanview pool deck….it’s all good.
Record breaking sales are not uncommon in our areas values just seem to keep going up….and often quickly.
But there are record breaking and record shattering sales and this was the later. The previous highest price ever for a top floor condo in Seascap 2 was $1,650,000 for 110 The Village #501. Not surprisingly that was only a few months ago.
110 The Village #503 was a rare top floor penthouse unit. There are a limited number of penhouse units so there’s only a sale or two on average. The penthouse units not only had the advantage of higher elevation, hence bigger views, but the penthouse units enjoy a loft that adds about 400 extra feet compared with most units.

This oceanview condo had been nicely updated and upgraded over the years. The spacious kitchen features quartz countertops, newer white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and more.
Both bedrooms and baths were on the main level (so only stairs involved are up to the loft) and primary features a bit of an open view and lots of light.
The condo had last sold in September of 2021 for $1,450,000.
The newest additon to the beachfront condo market is a good one. If truly feeling beachfront and oceanfront is the priority, the condos in 721 and 727 Esplanade are tough to beat. Unfortunately units rarely come up in either. This newest unit is on the 4th floor and the views are staggering. You feel more like youre on a cruise ship high above the waves than you feel like you’re in a condo.
The condo is listed by Martha (Mimi) Alonso with RE/MAX Estate Properties.
The home shows on the tax records as a 3 bedroom but listed as a 2 bedroom + den/office. The lower bedroom is spacious and private.
The main level offers soaring ceilings with massive windows to capture the light and the incredible views out front. Main level also features the galley style kitchen, oceanfront living and dining room as well as the office and laundry closet.
The upstairs loft suite, accessible via a narrow spiral staircase, doesn’t quite feel like the primary due to it being somewhat open to the room below, but it offers a huge closet, bath and nice ocean views. This level also features a private patio on the roof top deck (no views unfortunately)
The home slightly dated but we’re not sure that really matters as the features that feel a bit older don’t matter much when the views are what you’re paying for.
The amenities of Riviera shores are limited, but the complex does have a jacuzzi and sauna.
The condo had been listed in 2019 for $1,600,000 but did not sell and was eventually pulled off of the market.
The newest listing to hit the market in the Seascape and Village area of Redondo Beach is a nice but smaller, 2 bedroom condo overlooking Czuleger Park.
The home is listed with Alex Smith of eXp Realty.
Unlike some of the oddly shaped configurations in the 110 and 120 buildings these “side” units have a bit more of an open and wide layout. The home features a nice wrap-around deck.
Kitchen features bar/counter seating, stainless steel appliances, and separate in-unit laundry room.
This single level condo features engineered wood floors throughout other than kitchen and baths giving it a nice updated and flowing layout.
Seascape 2 has some resort style amenities like heated ocean peak swimming pool, multiple jacuzzis, small gym, and saunas!
We post alot about home maintenance and getting your home ready to sell, but this weekend we celebrate our real home. We are so fortunate to live at the beach and near the ocean and have the grandeur of nature just outside our windows and doors. From all of us at Thevillageredondobeach.com, Vista Sotheby’s and Keith Kyle homes we hope we can all do our part to keep our home in good shape.
Happy Earth Day.
