2 Bedroom Townhome in Fusion South Bay Sells for $985,000

by

***Please not that this listing sold earlier this year for $985,000***

Since there’s nothing currently on the real estate market in Three Sixty as of 3/31 we wanted to tell you about another option for those looking for something in the Hollyglen neighborhood of Hawthorne.  Just down the street from 360 is the smaller gated community of Fusion South Bay.  The newest townhome listing in Fusion just recently hit the market.  This is a beautifully updated 2 bedroom  E floorplan townhome located 5406 w 149th Pl #14 and is priced at $929K.  The E layout is a fairly popular floorplan as most spaces and rooms are fairly large and the living room offers high ceilings giving it wonderful natural light.

This beautiful townhome has been extensively updated and is not your typical original builder finishes.  Updates include cabinetry upgrades with custom storage, quartz countertops, hardwood floors and more.  The home has a 2 car attached garage.  The main drawback of this unit is the location as it overlooks the So Cal Edison substation and the various industrial looking towers and wires.    The owners and the community have done an admirable job in hiding it but it’s definitely hard to ignore.

Fusion South Bay definitely lacks the resort level amenities of Three Sixty but HOA dues and prices are lower.

As with all condos and townhomes in Fusion, the home has central A/C and is part of the award winning Wiseburn School District.

Condo Info

  • 2 bedrooms
  • 2 bathrooms
  • 1,370 square feet* (approx)
  • $293 HOA dues
  • Priced at $929,000
  • Listed by Paul Buller – RE/MAX Estate Properties – 310.218.9256

*As with every layout in Fusion there’s a bit of confusion to the square footage as original builder plans show 1,419 square  footage but the tax records indicate 1,370 sq feet.
