853 10th Street, Manhattan Beach, CA, USA 🇺🇸 – SOLD – $8,050,000 – Bryn Stroyke

This custom home sits on a sprawling 11,999 SF lot and was meant for living on a grand scale! A dramatic entryway opens to soaring ceilings and a gently curving stairway that beckons visitors to the open, main great room that centers around a floor-to-ceiling fireplace. Imagine entertaining guests around the huge home bar area complete with ample counter space and a convenient pass-through window to the wrap-around deck. Any mixologist would be right at home with dual beverage centers, an ice maker and dishwasher drawer! The kitchen was designed to accommodate large holiday gatherings with dual sets of appliances and an extra-large farmhouse sink. A center island offers great prep and presentation space while a breakfast nook sits close by. The kitchen is flanked by a large family room to one side, and a grand formal dining room to the other. A double door entry opens to the private master retreat with a massive walk-in closet. The master bath enjoys a deep, jetted soaking tub, an over-sized walk-in shower complete with a Mister Steam system and dual vanity areas topped with Kohler sinks. On the entry level, a second master suite features a jack-and-jill bath that connects to what is currently used as a den/home office. This is an excellent option for multi-generational living as this conjoining area could serve as a private living room. As a home office, the room enjoys beautiful custom library shelving and a custom in-laid tile floor design. The main bedroom level finds not only the remaining bedroom suites, but a huge media/playroom that opens wide to the private backyard. The yard is large enough to accommodate a future pool and currently “sports” a sport court area, a sun deck and a large, covered patio. A winding stairway allows direct access to the wrap-around upper deck area. Imagine entertaining all generations on all occasions – from cocktail tables to multiple bounce houses, this yard is meant for parties and gatherings of all kinds! Additional bonuses include four guest powder rooms, a huge, vented storage room (possible future wine room!), a second bonus storage closet, and a side-by-side 3 car garage with a storage/workbench bay that could potentially convert to a fourth garage space. With parking for up to 6 on site, this is a home ready to receive family and guests on a regular occasion! Just minutes from Downtown and the beach. If you are seeking large scale living in a densely populated beach town, you’ve just discovered a gem.
