NEW CONSTRUCTION OPPORTUNITY - PALOS VERDES ESTATES 3819 VIA LA SELVA

$1,395,000

Take a drive up to Palos Verdes Estates to visit 3819 Via La Selva and youll see why long time Manhattan Beach residents are ocking to the hottest South Bay neighborhood called Valmonte. Zoned for Silver Spur Elementary School ranked 3rd highest Los Angeles County API score (Robinson ranked #11 - [source: 2012 Dept of Education]) its quickly become the most sought after neighborhood in the area with its mature eucalyptus tree lined streets, new construction projects everywhere you turn, and PARKING anytime you want it. With downtown Los Angeles just a 25.5 mile drive (Manhattan Beach Tree Section is a 24 mile drive) why not buy a 12,700+ square foot lot instead of a 4,800 square foot lot to build your dream house -- when theyre the same price?

This once in a lifetime opportunity to build a custom home on one of the largest lots in Valmonte.

Send us an email at info@BeachCityTony.com and request the conceptual design oor plans by notable Louie Tomaro Architects.

SOUTH BAY HISTORY TIDBITS


MADRONA MARSH
BY MAUREEN MEGOWAN / RE/MAX ESTATE PROPERTIES

MASTHEAD PUBLISHER Warren J Dow CREATIVE DIRECTOR Debbie Glasscock

ASSOCIATE PUBLISHER Christopher Matalone

DIGITAL MEDIA SPECIALIST Kieron McKay

The Madrona Marsh Nature Preserve, located just east of Del Amo Fashion Center and bounded on the north and south by Plaza del Amo and Sepulveda Boulevard, and on the east and west by Maple and Madrona avenues, is considered to be the last remaining vernal marsh in Los Angeles County. Vernal marshes are found in low-lying areas where rainfall runoff accumulates. The Marsh preserve is a remnant of once extensive natural systems that existed along the coastal plain and coastal terraces of Southern California. The preserve is situated on land that has been in oil production since 1924. This is why it was never initially developed for commercial or residential uses. In the early 1960s, this area had been included as a proposed site for a new state college, that eventually became Cal State Dominguez Hills. In 1964, this area was then proposed for a Torrance Municipal golf course, but was never pursued due to high cost estimates to acquire the land. In 1972, Torrance Investment Co., a rm consisting of developers Ray Watt, Guilford Glazer and Shurl Curci proposed developing the whole parcel for homes, condominiums and ofce space. The group, Friends of the Madrona Marsh was formed in 1972, and together with another group, STOP, Stop Torrance Overdevelopment Plans, opposed the development proposals. Negotiations with environmentalists, debates and environmental impact reports continued throughout the 1970s. In 1980, the developers offered 15 acres for preservation. In 1983, they came up with an offer which eventually would be accepted: 34.4 acres would be deeded to the city, with another 8.5 acres made available for sale. The developers used the land to develop the Park del Amo condominium project. In 1984, Torrance was given a deed to the marsh, but it would be two more years until the arrangement would become formalized. The city nally won clear title to the land on September 16, 1986. Over the years, the marsh began to take shape as a nature preserve. Tons of truckloads of trash and other dumped debris were hauled away in 1989, and in 1994, 200 tons of inactive oil drilling pipes on the property were dug up and removed. The 8,000-square-foot Madrona Marsh Nature Center located across from the marsh at 3201 Plaza del Amo, opened on Saturday, April 28, 2001. The $1.8 million project was a joint venture of the Friends of the Madrona Marsh and the City of Torrance, using funds from Proposition A, which passed in 1996. Activities include bird and nature walks, natural history classes and workshops, habitat restoration, science and astronomy programs, art exhibits, and childrens nature programs.

Broker/Owner Hunter Mason Realty

COURTNEY SELF

REMODELING | ROOM ADDITIONS | RENOVATIONS | CUSTOM NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION

WRIT TEN BY HEI DI WALTER


Courtney Self, the broker/owner of Hunter Mason Realty, is a funny and likable person with a bold new vision for her real estate brokerage. Hunter Masons theme for 2014 is to add not just more agents, but quality agents to their brokerage, making sure that they have top-notch services. Quality, not quantity, Self reafrms. A quality agent is not just someone who closes a lot of deals; theyre an agent that works well in the progressive, casual environment of Hunter Mason, and who is invested in the local community through charity. Theyre someone who gives back to the neighborhoods in which they do business. Relying solely on word-of-mouth to acquire new agents on her team, Self herself sets an example by donating to the Peninsula Education Foundation, actively leading cub scout meetings, and devoting the past two years to acting as president of Womens Council of Realtors. As for clients, Hunter Mason is looking for people that want something good for their money and who are willing to pay for it. Because they sell primarily in the $750,000$2 million range, Hunter Mason agents have a lot of business and, according to Self, are readily available, which sets us apart from other companies. Its also something I want to retain as we grow. I dont want us to get so big that no one can answer our clients questions; I want to make sure clients have easy access and do not have to leave a voicemail and hope someone gets back to them in a day or two. Originally opened in 2010 in Malaga Cove on the Peninsula, Hunter Mason was rst named Malaga Realty. Self soon decided to change the name to Hunter Mason both of her sons rst names. I just didnt like the name Malaga Realty, confesses Self. Our intent has always been to make it a bigger company regionally. I kept thinking that Malaga Realty was really limiting. So, now the joke is I that cant have any more kids. If I had a girl Id have to name her Realty. After adding new agents, Hunter Mason eventually moved to the Hollywood Riviera. I think its a great location because youre at the base of the hill but youre central to all the beach cities and central to Torrance, says Self. When we rst moved here a year and a half ago we had about 25 agents. Now were 40 agents with plans to continue to add. Self has focused mainly on Redondo Beach townhomes and the Silver Spur neighborhood in Palos Verdes (where her own family lives). Shes not tied down by geography, however. Because her clients nd her 100% through referrals, she goes where her clients are. It surprises Self that people say that the real estate market has gotten better. Its actually been really good for about the past 18 months or so, she says. We had a fabulous year-end, and then all through the spring. In the summer, it just kind of stopped dead. Interest rates went up. It still has maintained a nice steady ow. It still is hard to purchase a property, in certain price ranges, theres just not that much to buy! Right now, were running into people who want to wait until after the holidays to sell, and right now is actually a great time to sell because there are buyers out there. They hear, You cant sell your home over the holidays, and thats just not true!

THE INSTITUTE FOR LUXURY HOME MARKETING RECENTLY AWARDED ED KAMINSKY FROM THE KAMINSKY REAL ESTATE GROUP THE ANNUAL AWARD GIVEN TO THE REAL ESTATE AGENT WITH THE BEST AND MOST INNOVATIVE MARKETING CAMPAIGN FOR A SPECIFIC PROPERTY IN THE PAST CALENDAR YEAR. Kaminsky created and executed on a very strategic global marketing campaign for a 14 million dollar ocean front Historical property in Laguna Beach. The property had languished on the market for nearly a year when he was approached by the owner to create a plan to get the property sold in a timely fashion at market value. Kaminsky combined auction strategy from his company Premiere Estates Auction Company with time tested strategies that he has harnessed over the last 25 years marketing high end real estate along the Coast of California. The focus of the campaign was to identify the ideal buyers both locally, nationally and globally for the property and get them in attendance to a pre-planned extravaganza. To attract the buyers he invited noted historical architectural experts as well as a fully catered event complete with a 5-piece jazz band. Hundreds of potential suitors attended and it resulted in a sale at just over $14 Million in under 3 weeks to an all cash buyer. Kaminsky stated, A project Iike this takes incredible teamwork and pinpoint execution in order to help a seller maximize a price in a timely fashion. It takes diligent work from our entire team as well as cooperation from the seller in allowing us to prepare the home in its best light. To see the sellers satised smile on their face when we cross the nish line is what gives me the energy and motivation to continue think outside the box and remain innovative in this very competitive market and sometimes challenging marketplace.

sunrise domes
WRIT TEN BY QUINN ROBERTS
One of the best things about living in the South Bay is that it can feel like summer Made out of galvanized steel tubing, the domes weather well. Along with vinyl any time of the year. Yet, other parts of the country arent as lucky. Sunrise Domes and shrink wrap covers, the company also offers dormer windows, cupolas and plywood panels that last for years. There really is an innovation to the dome, Goslin founder Justin Goslin had that in mind when creating the company in December 2007. A multipurpose product, the dome is mostly used as a greenhouse or garden said. We have created small things that set our structure apart and really make trellis, but plenty of customers use it as an outdoor workshop or pool/jacuzzi cover. It all depends on the season and what people want to do with the dome. it unique. Coming in four different sizes (16, 20, 26, 30 feet), customers can also special We are always thinking about aesthetics. We didnt want to have a square frame, Goslin said. We wanted it to be a beautiful structure, but also have a blend of practicality in it. With its geodesic design, the dome is lightweight, uses 25 percent less materials to enclose a given space, and its curved shape naturally deects wind and sheds snow accumulation. Goslins interest in geodesic design came while getting a degree in mechanical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. He stayed near there to create Sunrise Domes, with the companys workshops now in Southern New England. FOR MORE INFO, VISIT: WWW.SUNRISEDOMES.COM order Sunrise Domes as big as 40 feet. Depending on the size and the amount of accessories ordered, the domes can cost as little as $725. They can cost between $1,699-$9,999 if a shrink wrap cover or vinyl cover is included.It really does something to your subconscious, Goslin said. Because of the geodesic design, it does something to your mind. It is a sleek curve instead of a conventional rectangular design.

WRIT TEN BY QUINN ROBERTS PHOTOGRAPHY BY PAUL JONASON
Gavin Hampson was burnt out from his job in the lm industry as a freelance scenic artist. So, he decided to switch career paths and open Grot at 205 S. Pacic Coast Hwy in Redondo Beach in 1995. I was getting into my mid-30s then and was working on my knees for 16 to 18 hours a day, Hampson said. This shop was a way for me to use a lot of the techniques I had learned and apply it to furniture. Offering mostly mid-century modern Danish and American furniture, Hampson said most of the pieces in the store right now are from the 1950s and 1960s. His favorite piece at the moment is a Sven Engstrom black arch chair. One can also nd things like Eero Saarinen tulip chairs, a Nelson bubble lamp and a Tove & Edvard Kindt-Larsen coffee table. Keeping things at a relatively reasonable price, Hampson makes sure customers can nd items for as little as $50 and nothing higher than $2,500. This is a place where someone can get a well designed piece of furniture for a reasonable price. Even going up to Los Angeles, it would be so much more money, Hampson said. I like to get things and move them out of the shop quickly. Hampson said it is especially important to put eye-catching items out in the front of the store. is going to get their attention, said Hampson. where as people just throw stuff away when it breaks now. every day. It keeps you stimulated.

& reinvents

reclaims, restores

pieces from the past

He focuses on pieces that have bright colors, are portable and cant be ruined by the sun. People are going down PCH at 40 mph, so you have to put something out that

Doing anything he can to get vintage pieces into the store, Hampson takes items on consignment, travels to peoples homes, and even has a sign on the outside of the shop alerting people that he buys furniture. Not only does Hampson sell furniture, he also repairs and resurfaces it. He especially loves working with wood, trying to once again bring out its natural beauty.The older stuff is made to last. You can recover this furniture even when it has been abused, Hampson said. You can bring it back,

Never knowing who or what is going to walk through the doors, Hampson knows he made the right decision when opening Grot 18 years ago. Every day is different with owning this store, Hampson said. That is pretty exciting. It is a fresh challenge
