1237 Gertruda

Property Description

Welcome to 1237 S Gertruda-set on one of South Redondo's iconic "Ladies Streets," where kids roam freely, neighbors actually know each other, and from May through September the block turns into an open-air living room for monthly wine nights. This is the kind of street people dream of living on. Just a short stroll to Tulita Elementary, the beach, and the shops and restaurants of the Riviera, the home blends coastal living with family-friendly comfort. Inside, two inviting gathering spaces make everyday life feel easy: a sunny front living room with a wood-burning fireplace for cozy mornings, and a laid-back family room that opens straight to the backyard. Out back, built-in seating encircles a gas fire pit-an instant setting for storytelling, s'mores, or summer nights that run later than planned. The kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with a center island, KitchenAid appliances, wine fridge, and a coffee station that practically guarantees a smoother start to the day. Upstairs, the primary suite has its own private deck and gas fireplace-a little slice of calm where you can sneak away with a book or watch the sunset dip behind the palms. An electric gate along the side of the property leads to a driveway and detached garage, creating a private, compound-like feel that's rare in this part of town. And that garage? It's a blank canvas-perfect for a studio, office, extra hangout space, or the teen hideaway every parent secretly hopes for. Practical perks include a tankless water heater (2025), and Tesla-leased solar panels that help reduce monthly energy costs. All of it sits west of Prospect, in one of South Redondo's most loved pockets-walkable, welcoming, and full of the little everyday moments that make a house truly feel like home.
