A rare collaboration between renowned architect Louie Tomaro and RJ Smith Construction, this extraordinary newly constructed South Manhattan Beach residence showcases stunning ocean views, timeless coastal architecture, and exceptional craftsmanship. Thoughtfully conceived as a forever home rather than a speculative build, the interiors were meticulously curated by the owner, with every space reflecting an uncompromising commitment to quality, comfort, and enduring design. Distinctive within the South Sand Section, the home’s architectural design reimagines California coastal living by seamlessly blending sophisticated indoor spaces with expansive outdoor living and entertaining areas—a rare expression of the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that defines the best of Southern California.
At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is anchored by a stunning 55-inch French Lacanche range and appointed with Calacatta marble countertops, an integrated marble sink, Waterworks fixtures, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Bosch appliances, and custom cabinetry. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining area and inviting family room before extending to the resort-inspired backyard, where outdoor dining, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a Wolf grill, sink, and refrigerator, fireplace, outdoor television, heat lamps, integrated speakers, and a saltwater pool and spa create a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Framed by mature olive and cypress trees, the beautifully landscaped grounds evoke the warmth and tranquility of the Mediterranean.
Privately situated across from the main living spaces, a separate media room offers a peaceful retreat with sweeping ocean views and vistas of the Manhattan Beach Pier. A full bath on the main level provides added convenience for guests and easy access from the pool.
The upstairs primary suite is a true sanctuary, opening to an expansive ocean-view deck that captures spectacular sunsets and coastal breezes. A gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the luxurious marble-clad bath features radiant heated floors, a towel warmer, and dramatic arched sliding doors that flood the space with natural light.
The lower level offers two spacious secondary bedrooms along with a versatile flex space that can easily serve as a fourth bedroom, guest suite, media room, fitness studio, or lounge. Appointed with a wet bar featuring Silver Carrara marble countertops, a sink, and a mini refrigerator, the space is perfectly suited for entertaining or extended stays. Completing the level is a beautifully designed wellness bath with a sauna, cold plunge, and steam shower clad in handcrafted Moroccan Zellige tile, creating a private spa experience at home.
Natural stone, wide-plank hardwood floors, and thoughtfully curated designer finishes define the home's warm, sophisticated aesthetic. An oversized two-car garage is complemented by three additional off-street parking spaces, providing parking for five vehicles, an exceptionally rare amenity in South Manhattan Beach.
Located just steps from the beach, downtown Manhattan Beach and award-winning schools, 409 Bayview Drive presents a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional custom residence where breathtaking ocean views, timeless architecture, and effortless California living come together in one of the most coveted neighborhoods.
