For those of you not familiar with Manhattan Village it is the only gated community in the South Bay/Beach Cities. The Village is a mix of single family homes, Court homes(townhomes) and Patio homes ( townhomes) and is located behind the Manhattan Village Mall. The Village is home to a number of celebrities who travel a great deal because they can lock the house, take off and know it will be secure from fans who want to see where Joe and Jenny Famous live. The Village is also home to a wide variety of residents from young singles to older residents who wanted to downsize but stay in Manhattan Beach.
For the purpose of our tale I'm only going to talk about the two bedroom plans. We'll save the story about the village as a whole for another post.. The townhomes (Court and Patio styles) range in size from about 1450 to 2100 square feet. Prices vary greatly according to unit size and view. Homes that overlook the golf course are more expensive then those that do not have a view. The Plan I, Plan II and Plan 5 are the two bedroom models. They are 1450 -1583 square feet and range in price from $775,000 to $1,300,000. Now that's a rather large price differential.. so what's the deal?
For those of you who are curious about why there is such a big difference in prices for similar square feet... $500,000+ >>> Please read the rest of the story>>> I think you will be surprised...
