Scenic is the captivating white water views that Hermosa Sand Section owners relish on a daily basis. These inhabitants are often lighthearted, fun-loving young families and singles that simply enjoy life. From the beach party atmosphere that thrives along the sand, to the endless restaurants and bars along Hermosa Avenue and Pier Avenue, this section of Hermosa Beach is an enchanting place to call home.
The Sand Section is bordered by Manhattan Beach, Valley Drive, Redondo Beach and the beautiful Pacific. Sand homes in Hermosa are slightly less expensive than in Manhattan Beach making this section a great contender in the Sand marketplace. Single-family homes dominate this section north of 19th Street with lots ranging from about 2,000 to 4,500 square feet. Due to the slightly younger demographic, there is a wide variety of homes especially south of the Pier where one can find a slew of town-homes, condominiums and income properties, thus resulting in great opportunities for purchasing an investment property as well.
The pinnacle of the Hermosa Sand Section home would be the Strand properties. These homes range in size and style from modern mansions to original beach cottages. The bike and walking paths are combined here so the ‘strand’ path is extra wide, just like the beach it borders. Furthermore, walk streets in the Hermosa Sand Section are shorter and flatter compared to Manhattan Beach which makes for getting to know your neighbors much easier. Famous streets like Circle Drive, are known for large spectacular estates, as well as some tucked away in the valley near the Hermosa Valley School. The homes near the school get very little foot traffic or drive-thru traffic and typically enjoy larger, flatter yards.
Up and down the Sand Section are classic old-school delis like Boccatos with a gourmet meat market, and the Green Store with awesome sandwiches and a nice wine and beer selection just steps from the sand. Live entertainment is also close at hand in this section with The Comedy and Magic Club where one can bump into Jay Leno at any given time, or the Lighthouse on the Pier, as featured in the movie Lala Land, for nightly music.
Children growing up in this section will attend Hermosa View for K-2, Hermosa Valley for 2nd-8th, and a choice for high school at either Mira Costa in Manhattan Beach or Redondo Union.
The festive lifestyle of the sand dwellers here is obvious at the yearly turn-outs for the Beach Concert series, Fiesta Hermosa, and St. Patrick’s Day Parade to name a few. One may even be entertained while out for a stroll by the volunteer drum line that frequently gathers near the Pier. Hermosa Sand living is definitely la dolce vita.
