One of the most highly desired neighborhoods in Manhattan Beach California in which to live is the Manhattan Village. Being the only gated community with 24-hour security in the city proves to be both the safest and most convenient neighborhood in the South Bay. Add to that privacy, lovely landscapes and greenbelt area, parks, pool & heated spa, grassy lawns, wide streets, and ample parking, Manhattan Village is the perfect area for one who enjoys an active lifestyle.
Wrapping the outskirts of Manhattan Village are endless amenities, shopping and entertainment options. Connected by private entry, The Manhattan Village Mall is undergoing a major $180 million renovation to be completed by 2020. The outdoor mall is trimmed with palm trees and filled with boutiques, shops, chic restaurants, and ample outdoor spaces for kids to run amid fountains and flourishing flower beds.
Adjacent to the mall is the newly renovated Manhattan Beach Country Club, a private club with tennis courts, an Olympic size pool, spa, gym, racquetball, and two restaurants. The newly renovated club is home to many events throughout the year and is easily accessed from Manhattan Village. Likewise, residents can gain direct access to a public 9 hole par 3 golf course as well as the Manhattan Country Club and Village Mall through private gates. A preferred Manhattan Beach Soccer Field also has direct access to the Manhattan Village.
The community is hedged by other athletic facilities for adults and kids, like the aforementioned soccer fields to the west, baseball fields to the east and sports facilities like Equinox and Adventureplex are just around the corner. Also nearby, directly across from the Manhattan Village Mall, is The Point in El Segundo. The Point is yet another entertainment area with restaurants, shopping, salons, office space, and the famous exercise facility, Soul Cycle. Upscale grocery stores like Bristol Farms, Whole Foods, and Grow are at one's fingertips, as well as traditional grocers like Ralphs and Trader Joe’s which add to the conveniences the Manhattan Village neighborhood provides.
Manhattan Village is a short seven-minute drive to the beach in El Porto, a world-famous surf spot. It is a ten-minute drive to LAX, perfect for the traveling business person, and eight minutes into downtown Manhattan Beach which has a festive village-like atmosphere, top-rated restaurants, and countless festivities year-round.
The community is made up of single-family homes on individual lots and townhomes. The single-family homes are desirable and not often available for purchase.
