Manhattan Beach Tree Section
When
looking for a new dream home or next time your visiting our city to go
to the beach, or enjoy great food at one of our gourmet restaurants, or
specialty cafes, be sure to go by the different neighborhoods that we
have and especially the Manhattan Beach Tree Section, located a little
east of Downtown Manhattan Beach.
Speaking of Downtown Manhattan Beach, you can find great shops, chic
and boutique shops, retail stores, coffee shops, surfing shops,
professional service offices, a county library that is second to none,
and many other shopping and entertainment options. The streets are
lined with nice shady trees and the area overlooks our pier and the
ocean. Manhattan Beach has one of the top rated education systems in
California, with its students consistently scoring highest on their
achievement tests, statewide.

Before going on over to The Tree Section of our city, go by and check
out the other neighborhoods to see the diversity of homes that we have
here. In The Sand Section, which is the area all along the beach and
inland about 4-5 blocks, there are many types of single family homes as
well as condos. The Strand Section is the area that goes along the
beach and the huge single family homes that face the beach and ocean
are very expensive and highly sought after, some selling for as much as
up to $15M. The homes right behind the Strand Homes, are in what we
call the ‘Walk Streets’. These are not really streets but public
accesses to the beach and are actually wide sidewalks with the homes
facing the sidewalks and are favorites for family’s because there are
no cars or any type of vehicles on these Walk Streets. The houses have
alley access behind their homes for their autos. Up in the northern
area of the city, are many smaller homes and cottages with some condos
as well. Most have no yards and are very small. This area used to be
called El Porto. To the east of downtown is The Hill Section, where
wonderful homes, some very large, are sitting on fairly large lots
overlooking the town and the ocean. This is the 2nd most expensive area
in the town. On the eastern border of Manhattan Beach is what we call
the East Manhattan Section and includes many large single family homes
built on huge lots with big yards and are by far more family oriented
than most of the areas near the beach, with the exception of The Tree
Section. East Manhattan includes many tract type homes built in the
late 40s and 50s, (some have been rebuilt or replaced with newer larger
homes). East Manhattan also includes Manhattan Village, which is a
gated community of luxurious town homes and estate homes. There is
golf, a soccer field, parks and a pool for residents use only.
Manhattan Beach, and especially Manhattan Village, has many national
sports stars and famous Hollywood Celebs as residents.
Now you’re at The Tree Section, your original destination spot. The
Tree Section is a quiet, quaint area of town, located in quiet valleys
and the streets are lined with mature trees. These trees are so
respected that there is a city code that states they cannot be removed
or damaged. The homes here are family oriented, and consists of single
family homes, some older bungalows and cottages. Many of the older and
smaller homes have been replaced with larger, new and more modern
homes. There is no doubt that this is where the family’s are located,
with kids playing ball in the streets, or many family’s blocking off
certain streets for a neighborhood party, and this is not unusual.
It’s quiet here, and very peaceful, with some of the streets still
having the old gas lights put up decades ago. This is a great place to
raise a family. Its close to anywhere you want to go in Manhattan
Beach, or to the freeway accesses to take you to other famous Southern
California cities and attractions, or to Los Angeles only 19 miles
away, to shopping in downtown M.B., or to the shopping centers within
blocks of here. It has many churches, private schools, many banks,
medical and dental options and anything else you would ever want.
