Never Mind The Flood Zone, For $3.3 Million This "Brick Beauty" Could Be Yours!

Wealth is meaningless unless you own what appears to be your own “Danaë and the Shower of Gold”… a.k.a. old school pinups.

I was perusing Zillow last night for no real reason when I stumbled upon this little palace in Manhattan Beach, now on the market for the low, low price of $3.3 million.

This 5,000-square-foot single family home features six bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. It sits on a mammoth lot of 6,011 square feet, so there’s some private yard space for you to gaze upon from your balcony while you ponder on what new things you can jam marble or trim with gold.

The house has been on the market for nearly three months and hasn’t dropped in price. Here’s the description from the broker, Alex Bragynsky:

Homes of this caliber rarely come to market. Young brick beauty is the most exciting property to hit the market in years it is the real harmony of grandness and comfort! Nestled on a coveted street just steps to the Ocean Beach and park! This ultra luxurious 3-story + basement residence with a gated entrance sits on a 6,000 SF property. Indulge in your own outdoor paradise with a gorgeous landscaped garden with a fontan, summer kitchen with grill and more. Boasting a 5000-SF interior with 6 bedrooms & 5 baths, this magnificent sunny and airy home features the finest finishes! The double-height living wows you, entertain in the living room with unique fireplace, dining room and chef’s kitchen, 2 sfabulous master suites with an ensuite baths and franch balconies. Enjoy of huge terrace, play area & jacuzzi

If $3.3 million sounds like a lot to you, well, actually, it’s not for Manhattan Beach, historically speaking. In the two years before Superstorm Sandy, several homes sold for between $2 million and $3.5 million.

However, that was before the flood. It’s the highest price tag on the market in Manhattan Beach since that fateful October day in 2012. Even if it was slashed by more than a million dollars, it would remain the highest sell since the storm. The current record holder is this home at 183 Girard Street, which sold in March for $1.98 million.

Anyway, Mr. Bragynsky has not disclosed the address of the house. But that’s no fun. We want to go get a peek at the outside, because that’s where we’re told beauty really lies. On the outside.

If you know where this house is, let us know.

No bidet, but it seems they may have a photo-bombing dolphin.

Weeping angels. Don’t blink.

$5 if you spot the petite lap giraffe.

Marble table and leather chairs? Patio furniture like a boss.

Well, that’s an awkward place for a television.

“We couldn’t fit the toilet in the photo, so we took the gold-plated seat off and threw it on the floor so you could see we had one.” — No, really, what is that on the floor?
