A stone's throw from The Strand in the coveted El Porto section of Manhattan Beach, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is a rare blend of coastal ease and eclectic soul. Located on arguably the best street in North Manhattan Beach, this recently reimagined artful home with ocean views is a rare gem. Upon entry, a serene water feature sets the relaxing tone as one transitions to the primary suite, complete with a beautifully appointed ensuite bath featuring a clawfoot tub. Across the hall sits the spacious second bedroom and bath. Off the garage, a versatile bonus space with its own half bath and possible separate entrance, offers the option of an ADU, studio, gym, or private retreat for guests. Upstairs, the large open concept living and dining areas are flooded in natural light along with a gourmet kitchen. This floor also features the third bedroom, a skylight-topped retreat that also effortlessly lends itself to a home office or creative studio, with an inviting balcony offering direct ocean and sunset views. Thoughtful design touches throughout give the home its signature creative-cool edge, including a private sauna and cold plunge for an at-home wellness retreat that turns everyday living into ritual. With its unbeatable proximity to the beach, wide lot with extra parking and direct access garage, striking sunset backdrop, and one-of-a-kind character, 208 43rd Street isn't just a place to live....it's a lifestyle statement.
