Zen Coastal Retreat 3BR | Sauna & Cold Plunge

Summary:

Welcome to The Lion House, an eclectic, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom ocean-view home in Manhattan Beach, located just one block from the beach and The Strand. Thoughtfully curated with high-end finishes, original artwork, and spa-level amenities including a private sauna and cold plunge, this home offers an elevated coastal escape with character and soul.



The Space:

Welcome to The Lion House, an eclectic, thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom Manhattan Beach vacation home, located just one block from the beach and The Strand. With ocean views, curated artwork, and spa-level amenities including a private sauna and cold plunge, this home offers an elevated coastal escape that feels both grounding and inspired.



Originally built by an eccentric astrophysicist with a fascination for symmetry, symbolism, and the poetry of numbers, The Lion House carries a story that is subtly woven throughout its design. Today, that legacy lives on through an eclectic blend of modern coastal style, spiritual touches, and unexpected moments of delight that give the home its soul.



Each space is designed to restore and inspire. Rejuvenate in the private sauna and cold plunge, unwind in the spa-style soaking tub, and discover meaningful art reflecting balance, protection, and clarity, including a Buddha blessed in Bhutan and subtle nods to the number three. A playful flamingo in the shower adds a moment of whimsy, a detail guests often remember long after their stay.



Step outside and enjoy a short, effortless walk to the Manhattan Beach shoreline and The Strand. Begin your mornings barefoot on the sand and end your evenings surrounded by ocean air, golden sunsets, and the calming rhythm of the Pacific.
