A rare dual-home setup on one lot, this Manhattan Beach house gives a group of up to ten real breathing room – two fully independent living areas connected by a landscaped courtyard, so everyone stays close without being on top of each other. The main house opens onto a west-facing deck with ocean views, while the guest house has its own rooftop deck, and beach chairs, surfboards, and bikes are ready when you are. The sand is a five-minute walk, with Manhattan Beach Pier a ten-minute stroll further along the coast.

Home truths
This home comprises a three-bedroom home and a two-bedroom guest house on the same site. To reach the guest house, you'll cross the patio courtyard. Both homes have their own entrance and living spaces, so a group of ten can spread out comfortably.
There's no air conditioning in either home – fans are provided, but if you're visiting in summer, factor that in when planning your stay.
This is a characterful coastal home with older fixtures and finishes – it's well-maintained, but doesn't have a newly renovated interior, and there may be some minor cosmetic wear to the furnishings.
You'll have parking for two vehicles in the front driveway and space for one small sedan in the back garage.
There are external security cameras here at the front door and the side of the house.
Your host asks you to respect quiet hours between 10pm and 7am.
Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay for no additional charge.
