Luxury and Lifestyle at 1309 Songbird Way
Welcome to the gated Serenade community, a hidden gem where Mediterranean architecture meets modern convenience. This meticulously maintained residence at 1309 Songbird Way is designed for the 2026 South Bay lifestyle, bright, open, and incredibly versatile. Whether you are coming from the Beach Cities or looking to be closer to the central South Bay hub, this property delivers.
The main living level is the heart of the home, featuring warm wood flooring, recessed lighting, and a gourmet kitchen anchored by brand-new quartz countertops. The seamless flow to the private backyard, finished with easy-maintenance pavers is perfect for weekend barbecues or quiet coastal evenings.
The Versatility of the Ground Floor Suite
One of the standout features of this home is the first-floor bedroom. With its own en-suite bathroom, this space is the ultimate "flex" room for 2026 needs. It serves perfectly as:
-
A quiet, professional home office for the remote executive.
-
A private guest suite for visiting family.
-
A multigenerational living space for those transitioning from Palos Verdes or Manhattan Beach.
The top level houses three additional bedrooms, including a primary suite that acts as a true retreat with a soaking tub and separate shower. The convenience of an upstairs laundry room proves that every inch of this 2,016-square-foot home was designed with the owner in mind.
Torrance Real Estate FAQ

Why This Listing Stands Out
With 30 years of experience as a broker in the South Bay, I have seen many Mediterranean-style builds, but few offer the combination of "Turnkey" condition and functional layout found here. Located near the Del Amo Fashion Center and with easy access to the 405 and 110, this is the strategic play for buyers who want luxury without the high maintenance of an older estate.
