I thought it would be fun to go through 2008’s Top Tuesday Tour Tips for Palos Verdes real estate and pick my favorites, tell you why and give you an update on those properties.
My favorite listing is my own listing at 838 Rivera Place, Palos Verdes Estates; it is a 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 3,025 square foot home for $2,449,000 (original price was $2,499,000. This Lunada Bay home is lavishly remodeled with a private courtyard entry and panoramic ocean/Catalina views from nearly every room. It is a great alternative to a Terranea casita (and less expensive) and you can use it 365 days a year! (view more photos by clicking on the link above) This home is currently on Hold for the holidays.
Lisa Hawk’s 43 Misty Acres, Rolling Hills Estates, (above left) is a 4 bedroom, 4 bath, 2,881 square foot home for $1,719,000. This single level home located in The Ranch (gated community) is one of my favorites as it has a great backyard – very large with pool, barbecue area, gazebo, private driveway and 3-car garage. This home has a bright open floor plan and is currently Active (for sale). Kitty and Rick Edler’s 209 Rocky Point Road, Palos Verdes Estates, (above right) is a 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath, 2,720 square foot home for $3,399,000 (original price $3,750,000). This Lunada Bay home sits at the ocean’s edge overlooking the bay, has a pool and is needs to be updated – but look at that view and bluff property too! This home is currently in escrow and they are taking Backup offers.
James Sanders’ 3900 Via Nivel, Palos Verdes Estates, (above left) is a 4 bedroom, 2 bath, 2100 square foot home that was originally listed for $1,249,000 and sold in October for $$1,005,000. I thought this was a very good price for a Valmonte home of this size with a pool – only negative was that it was on the corner of Palos Verdes Drive North. Gary Myer’s 32759 Seagate Drive, Penthouse G, Rancho Palos Verdes, (above right) is a 2 bedroom, 1.75 bath, 1,506 square foot condominium that was originally listed for $1,395,000 and sold last week for $1,100,000. This Bay Club penthouse was an ocean front unit with a 180 degree view, was completely remodeled and would be perfect for either weekend getaways or full time living.
