Homes in Manhattan Beach
Beach Houses and Modern Rebuilds in Manhattan Beach
Manhattan Beach has some of the most valuable homes in the South Bay. Many older beach cottages have been replaced with large modern homes.
- Sand Section homes on narrow lots and walk streets, close enough to hear the waves.
- Tree Section and Hill Section homes with traditional, Spanish and modern styles.
- Roof decks on many new homes, built to catch ocean views.
- Flat and low-slope roofs on modern rebuilds that stay under local height limits.
Salt spray, sun and foot traffic on roof decks are the three biggest challenges for roofs in Manhattan Beach.

Local know-how
Keeping Manhattan Beach Roof Decks Dry
Roof decks are the best part of many Manhattan Beach homes, and also a top source of leaks. Here is what keeps them dry.
- Slope the deck so water runs to a drain, never toward the door.
- Flash every door threshold and wall with metal that resists rust.
- Mount railings on the side of the deck or seal each post with its own boot.
- Recoat walkable deck surfaces before they wear through.
