Sitting directly on The Strand with the Pacific filling the view from every west-facing window, this Manhattan Beach apartment is about as close to the ocean as you can get without sleeping on sand. Glass sliders open fully from the living room onto a balcony above the promenade – front-row seats for sunsets that need no filter. A ground-floor gear room stocked with cruiser bikes, beach chairs, and boogie boards means the whole coastline is yours to explore, and The Strand's famous oceanfront path runs right outside the door.
