Once a week we try to get out and er, that is, see the brand-new listings in an LA neighborhood. Today was Manhattan Beach with local Realtor Kaye Thomas. What we saw:

215 19th Street: Steps to the beach, this 3-story custom-built Mediterranean-style on a ‘walk street’ is big: 4,252 Square Feet, 5 bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths. Five balconies, ocean views, elevator. $4.99 million. Kaye: ‘They’ll get close to that. There’s not much down here with views like these.’

2311 Poinsettia Avenue: Big house (3400 Square Feet, 5 bedrooms) on a not-so-big lot in the ‘Tree Section’; granite kitchen, spa tub, walking distance to Greenbelt. $2.149 million. Kaye observes the colored tiles in bathrooms are a bit dated, and may bring the selling price down. ‘For the price, the bathroom in the master needs an upgrade.’

1707 Voorhees Avenue (pictured): Big (5 bedroom, 4-bath), 2004-built Cape Cod-style east of Sepulveda has beautiful Mahogany floors and 30 feet of emerald granite counters. $1.925 million. Kaye: ‘It’s a really nice house, but it’s a short lot.’

911 Duncan Avenue: A beautiful architectural modern -- 5 bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, huge open spaces for entertaining, ocean views, elevator, custom stone bathrooms, media room, the works. Flyer: ‘Reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright’s ‘Falling Water.’’ $3.77 million.

1707 1st Street: Remodeled 3 bedroom, 2 bath east of Sepulveda, 1,407 Square Feet. Priced at $979,000, which is on the low side for Manhattan Beach. Owners of 30 years are relocating to a 3,000-square foot home on a lake in Arkansas. Kaye: ‘This will go. You’ll have multiple offers on it.’
