Lauren Forbes of Lauren Forbes Group at Compass has closed the sale of 721 12th Street in Manhattan Beach for $4,675,000. The sale closed in October 2026.
The house sits in the heart of Manhattan Beach, an easy walk to downtown, the beach and local schools. Built in 2006, it has about 3,487 square feet over three levels connected by an elevator, with five bedrooms and four bathrooms, air conditioning, and glimpses of the ocean and the mountains.
The top floor is built around the main living and entertaining spaces. The renovated kitchen has Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine refrigerator, a Thermador range and oven, and a walk-in pantry. A sunny breakfast nook with built-in bench seating is wrapped in windows, and two patios extend the space outdoors. The same floor has a flexible office or fifth bedroom with built-in bookshelves and an oversized balcony looking over the backyard toward the mountains.
On the second level, the primary suite has its own balcony, a fireplace, a large walk-in closet and a bath with a soaking tub and a glass-enclosed shower with a pebble floor. Two more bedrooms with Juliet railings share a bathroom, and there is a dedicated laundry room.
The lower level, once a separate studio, is now part of the main house while keeping its own sense of privacy. A wall of La Cantina doors opens it straight to the backyard, and it has a wine closet, a full bar, a kitchenette, custom cabinetry, a built-in desk and a wall bed for guests. Outside, the private backyard has a waterfall feature, a stone gas fire pit and a turf lawn.
