If “storybook charm meets everyday function” had an address, it would be 836 Loma Vista Street in highly desirable El Segundo—where inventory is low and opportunities like this don’t linger. Built in 1924 with all the Craftsman character you crave—warm details, inviting lines, and that intangible ahhh feeling—this 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath corner-lot home sits on a generous 6, 473 sq ft lot, giving you room to stretch out, entertain, and let life unfold. The exterior has been freshly painted, the landscaping is all new, the interior has been fully refreshed with a coat of paint, and the shower now gleams with crisp white tile. Upstairs is where daily life happens—sunny living spaces, bedrooms ready for sweet dreams, and a kitchen that’s practically begging for weekend pancake duty. But it’s downstairs where your imagination can really run wild. Currently used for laundry and storage, this expansive first-floor level already boasts a half bath and three distinct rooms—each with the potential to be so much more. Think: one massive primary suite with a private lounge, a separate guest retreat, or even a full-fledged mother-in-law setup. Or maybe you’re envisioning a sleek home gym, a sprawling playroom, a creative studio, or a remote-work haven where you can actually close the door and focus. The beauty? With this much square footage, you don’t have to choose—you can mix, match, and make it entirely your own. Step outside and you’ll find a backyard worth bragging about—a pergola-shaded patio for lazy afternoons, a wide expanse of grass perfect for soccer games and cartwheels, plus a spacious side yard that’s a true perk of corner-lot living, ready for whatever you imagine next. And the location? Prime. You’re just a quick walk or drive to Dockweiler Beach, a breezy 13-minute stroll to El Segundo High School, and moments from the heart of downtown El Segundo—where you can grab brunch at Blue Butterfly Coffee or Good Stuff, indulge in fresh sushi at Sausal or Deluca’s, enjoy craft beers at Richmond Bar & Grill, or browse unique finds at local boutiques like The Silo and BizHaus Market. With history, fresh updates, a rare lot size, and a coveted corner position in one of the South Bay’s most sought-after communities, this home isn’t just charming—it’s your invitation to live the beachside small-town dream, with space to grow, reimagine, and truly make it yours.
