Haute Residence: What is your take on what to expect for the Manhattan Beach area real estate in 2021?

Cindy Shearin: The Shearin Group has proudly served the South Bay for more than 30 years. We are grateful to represent such a fantastic community year after year. The beauty of the beach cities and the proximity to LAX Airport, downtown Los Angeles and the city's conveniences keep our marketplace healthy.   

With the new year upon us, we expect a continuing robust market in the South Bay. Luckily, real estate has been hot for both the buyer and the seller during the 2020 pandemic. This has been primarily due to our area's desirability in which to live, low inventory, and minimal new construction. The low amount of new construction is merely due to the lack of buildable lots throughout the beach cities. We continue to see multiple offers and cash offers for homes and the few buildable lots that come to market. Buyers are moving around throughout the coastal communities, from other cities in the greater Los Angeles area, and some movement from buyers from other cities and states that desire to be in our immediate area.

Currently, The Shearin Group is building one of a few spec homes coming to market in Manhattan Beach in late 2021.  We continue to remain in the top tier of real estate groups with a pulse on the market and the "coming soon" inventory. 

We are grateful for our thriving community. Thank you, South Bay clients and friends, for the opportunity to serve you. We'd like to wish everyone a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2021.

Haute Residence: How did the real estate market look at the beginning of 2020?

Cindy Shearin: The real estate market in the South Bay typically fluctuates very little. Pre-pandemic, we had low inventory, market prices were steady, and the US economy looked very promising.  There was a temporary pause in the market for about 60 days starting in late February.  This pause was simply due to the unknown with COVID-19. Though very brief, movement in the marketplace picked back up quickly in mid-April.

HR: What, if any, changes did the pandemic have on prices? On inventory?

CS: The pandemic has had little-to-no effect on the South Bay market, especially in Manhattan Beach. We continue to have low inventory, plus there are fewer spec or custom homes being constructed due to the short supply of lots in which to build on. In fact, the Shearin Group has one of the few spec homes under construction right now in Manhattan Beach, but we’ll share more on that with Haute Residence when we get closer to completion.  

Interestingly, our numbers are up on properties sold, and even price points are up despite COVID-19. The South Bay is one of the premier areas to live in LA, and we see many Angelinos buying second homes as beach houses during this time. Buyers are looking for a place to retreat to for a lengthy amount of time but still work remotely from their own home. An excellent solution for this is reflected in an oceanfront property we represent in Hermosa Beach property called the Beach House, LA’s only condotel along the coast in So Cal. The Beach House has been very hot lately as a second home location being a great income property when not in use. Other benefits of owning at the Beach House are being right on The Strand, steps to the sand, daily housekeeping service when wanted, turn-key, and walkable to everything this great beach town has to offer.

HR: Professionally, what have you learned in 2020 about yourself?

CS: It has undoubtedly been a unique year of self-discovery for us all.  We quickly learned how to maintain our top efficiency by working remotely.  We also had to adapt to safety changes in real estate by developing new methods for working with clients in person and online and just being flexible to each individual's comfort level. 

I feel fortunate with how easily we all adjusted and maintained healthy attitudes as well as healthy bodies.  We have great hope for the new year, and we'd like to wish everyone a healthy, happy 2021.

A timeless-lifestyle estate in Lunda Bay that has it all; stunning ocean and sunset views, sparkling pool, grassy yard & pool house, plus much more.

Enjoying gorgeous sunsets and ocean views are a part of daily life from this home in the prestigious Lunada Bay area of Palos Verdes Estates.  The light-filled estate is designed in a timeless-transitional genre with a nod to soft-modern, making it suitable to any taste.  Recently, the home underwent a full remodel and displays ocean views from almost every room, clean design lines, and all the modern finishings today’s homebuyer desires.  Updated details include Carrera marble countertops, wide-plank French Oak floors, crisp white Shaker-style cabinets, French Encaustic tiles, and two massive outdoor decks for indoor/outdoor living, a must in Southern California.

The main house contains four bedrooms and six baths at just over 3700 sq. ft. Three of the bedrooms are en-suite with private balconies and newly remodeled baths in Carrera marble, Calacatta Neolith, or Quartz, respectively.  Throughout the home, one will find updated lighting and oodles of natural light. Built for the Southern California lifestyle, the home is constructed with an open floor plan including a large family room adjacent to the kitchen and flex-space upstairs, perfect for a game room or movie room.  The open modern galley kitchen includes ample storage space, a large kitchen island, updated pendant light fixtures, and a separate food prep area topped with Carrera marble.

Outside, the expansive backyard is fully secured by a privacy fence for safety and seclusion. Here, the large pool and spa are trimmed by a grassy lawn, full outdoor kitchen, and a large patio for lounging and dining. Meanwhile, two large decks on the main house overlook the backyard and pool area to capture spectacular sunset views each evening. A bonus to this property is the guest/pool house with a 3/4 bath and kitchenette attached to the two-car garage.  This flex-space is perfect for a home office, homework space for distance-learning, or a game room large enough for a full-size pool table and poker table for hosting games nights.

Lunada Bay is one of the most highly desired areas of Palos Verdes Estates for its beauty with towering cliffs and ocean views.   Thorley Road, in particular, is a flat road, perfect for kids riding bikes and skateboarding.  Likewise, it is also walking distance to the shops at Lunada Bay, the elementary school, and high school, an added convenience that is rare on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

2129 Thorley is a vacation lifestyle home with every convenience for the modern family.

Address: 2129 Thorley Rd, Palos Verdes Estates, CA 9027

This bedroom in a tropical setting takes full advantage of the beach and ocean beyond. The bed and accompanying ottomans are positioned to not obstruct each other's view; and, the plants bring nature indoors. The sunsets in the Malibu beachfront houses are pacific and can be enjoyed from every room in them. Keep reading below for how to engage water views from the other areas in your house.

Head out to the patio and place lounge chairs to enjoy the countryside. The redwood floor in this house gives the space a more rustic feel, but the hanging greenery softens it.

River

The River Thames in England serves as the scenery for the small dining table in this modern house. Notice the custom-built windows that open with barely any effort to get out of either chair next to it. The perfectly-selected mirror has the waves of the river in its design.

An apartment is a bit farther from the water than a house, but that should not prevent the infusing of water themes. The beachy feel of this kitchen and living room comes from the colorful stool chairs and the oceanic tones found on the sofa and kitchen items.

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to live next door to Oprah? She’s be bringing over freshly baked pies and throwing some amazing cocktail parties and yet would never be too loud or rambunctious. It would be perfect. She would be the perfect neighbor. Anyway, I digress.

The reason this is important is because this possibility is about to become reality for one lucky buyer. The home next door to Oprah in Montecito, a beautiful, $45 million dollar estate, is now on the market, listed by The Agency.

The home was formerly owned by someone famous in his own right, Ed Snider, the self-made millionaire behind the Philadelphia 76’ers, Eagles, and chairman of the company that owns the Flyers. No Oprah, but still pretty cool.

The home itself is also pretty incredible. Built in the image of Italy’s Lake Como, this estate sits on 9.37 acres of land and offers something unique to the area, a sense of peace, space, privacy, and luxury to its residents over looking the pacific ocean. The interior is full of wide-open windows to make the most of the ocean view in a panoramic image of the ocean all the way to the mountains in the distance. The space also features showroom closets, an entertainment level, chef’s kitchen, and spa bathroom that all covers over 2000 square feet. Tiered gardens, a reflecting pond, European-style pool and pavilion, tennis court, organic fruit and vegetable orchard, and two-bedroom guest house epitomize modern luxury and timeless sophistication in one of California’s most desirable enclaves.

But most importantly, Oprah lives next door. Maybe, if you live here, you guys can get one of those tin can phone lines to talk all the time! Just saying.
