About 2825 Martha Avenue

Welcome to 2825 Martha, a friendly and inviting home nestled in the coveted Shady Nook Tract of Old Torrance. Step onto the front yard and be greeted by a majestic magnolia tree, perfect for a swing or two, ideal for playtime or chatting with neighbors on sunny afternoons. This fabulous starter home sits on a generous, flat lot and offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and an attached single-car garage. The roof was reroofed in 2016, with permits on file with the city, giving you peace of mind. Beneath the carpet, hardwood floors await your revitalization touches. The attached garage offers flexibility—it can be easily incorporated into the home’s footprint for expansion, while the backyard provides plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment or another option for expansion. Step out from the kitchen onto a welcoming patio, leading to a large flat yard graced by a stunning jacaranda tree, creating a serene and inviting outdoor space. Very private and peaceful. A versatile shed/former hot tub enclosure in the backyard presents endless possibilities: transform it into an ADU, guest house, storage space, or even a rejuvenated hot tub retreat with a little creativity. The hot tub enclosure has 220V. The electrical panel has been replaced with 200 amp service. The plumbing has been upgraded to mostly copper. This home is full of potential, charm, and character, ready for the next owner to make it truly their own. The Shady Nook Tract in Torrance, California, is a mid-20th-century residential neighborhood characterized by its modest, single-story homes built primarily in the 1940s and 1950s. These homes typically feature two bedrooms and one bathroom, with living spaces ranging from approximately 750 to 800 square feet. The tract was developed during a period of rapid suburban expansion in Southern California, reflecting the architectural and planning trends of that era.
