The five highest-priced home sales reported in South Bay–Palos Verdes, California for the week ending November 1, 2026, came to a combined $31.184 million. Every one was a single-family home, and together they cover seven decades of building, from a mid-century home on a corner by the beach to one finished in 2020 with views over a golf course to the Pacific. Compass agents were the listing agents on two of the five sales.
No. 1 — $7,839,000 · 6580 Sea Cove Dr, Rancho Palos Verdes, California
The top sale of the week was an oceanfront home set on a private bluff in Rancho Palos Verdes, which sold for $7,839,000. Built in 1989 and updated since, the two-story stucco home sits behind gates and mixes modern and Spanish design. From the bluff, the views reach across the open ocean to Catalina Island and along the coastline.
At 7,407 square feet, it is the largest of the five homes, with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, six full and one half. High ceilings and walls of glass run through the main rooms. The kitchen has been redone, and the living and dining areas open onto broad view terraces. There are fireplaces in the living room, the dining room and the primary bedroom, along with one outdoors. The primary suite is on the main level and has two walk-in closets and a spa-style bath. Elsewhere are executive offices, a media room and a room that can serve for games or fitness.
The 0.82-acre lot is the largest in this group. Its grounds include landscaped lawns, a heated pool and spa, and a built-in barbecue, and the home has a four-car garage along with gated parking for guests. The property last sold for $7.75 million in 2023.
Audrey Judson of Pacifica Properties Group, Inc. and Lily Liang of Strand Hill Properties were the listing agents. Liang also represented the buyer, so the same agent was on both sides of the week’s highest-priced sale.

No. 2 — $6,550,000 · 17 16th St, Hermosa Beach, California
On a corner of one of the flat walk streets of North Hermosa Beach, one home off The Strand, this property sold for $6,550,000. The beach is steps away, and downtown, its shops and restaurants, and the Hermosa Beach Pier are all an easy walk.
The home was built in 1950 and has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and 3,890 square feet on a 3,167-square-foot lot, with a three-car garage. The property is set up as a main residence with four bedrooms and three baths, plus a separate one-bedroom residence with a loft that can serve guests, family or a private office. The corner setting lets light into the main home, which has a living room fireplace and high ceilings. At the top is a rooftop deck that looks out over the Pacific.
Jennifer Caskey and Stacy Wadman of Compass were the listing agents, and Dennis Moloney of Strand Hill Properties represented the buyer. It was one of two homes in this Top 5 listed by Compass agents.

No. 3 — $5,800,000 · 436 27th St, Manhattan Beach, California
The covered deck at this contemporary home in the Sand Section of Manhattan Beach reaches about six feet past the home next door, which opens a line of sight down the street to the ocean. It has automatic shades and heaters. The three-story home, built in 2018 by builder Titan and Co., sold for $5,800,000.
The top floor is the center of the home: a kitchen with an oversized quartz island, a Wolf six-burner range, Sub-Zero refrigeration and a wet bar with a wine refrigerator, set between two separate living areas. A gas fireplace on that floor is framed in floor-to-ceiling chevron tile. On the ground floor, a room the listing calls the Beach Room has a built-in bar and opens directly to the landscaped front patio; with its door closed, it can serve as a fifth place to sleep. A three-stop elevator links the levels.
The home has four bedrooms and five bathrooms, four full and one half, in 3,607 square feet on a 2,402-square-foot lot. Three of the bedrooms have their own baths, among them a primary suite with a private covered patio, and a guest bedroom and bath are downstairs. White oak floors run through the rooms, and there is an outdoor shower and a two-car garage. The home sits on one of the first drive streets north of downtown, a block from Grand View Elementary and Sand Dune Park. The property last sold for $3.985 million in 2020.
Edward Kaminsky of eXp Realty of California, Inc was the listing agent, and the home went under contract 24 days after it was listed. Rob Depaoli of Compass represented the buyer.

No. 4 — $5,620,000 · 201 5th St, Manhattan Beach, California
From most rooms on the upper two floors of this home in the south Sand Section of Manhattan Beach, the view runs along the white water of the ocean from Palos Verdes Estates to Point Dume, with Catalina in sight. It sold for $5,620,000. Built in 1998 on a sunny corner lot that faces southwest, the three-story home is the smallest of the five, with 2,170 square feet on a 1,663-square-foot lot.
A slate foyer leads to a sculptural staircase. The living room has a fireplace and opens to a sundeck, and the skylit dining room has banquette seating, with a two-tier bar for watching the sunset. The kitchen has granite and stainless steel appliances, and a dumbwaiter serves the home. The primary suite combines a sitting area with its own fireplace, a spa-style bath, a walk-in closet and an office with a wet bar and beverage refrigerator, and it opens to a second sundeck facing the ocean. Two more bedrooms each have their own bath, for three bedrooms and four bathrooms in all.
Utility lines in the neighborhood have been moved underground. The beach is half a block away and downtown shopping and dining are four blocks off, and the home has a two-car attached garage. The property last sold for $439,000 in 1997, before the current home was built.
Kurt Allen and Judy D’Angelo of Compass were the listing agents, the second Compass listing in this Top 5. Justin Miller of Beach City Brokers represented the buyer.

The newest home of the five, built in 2020, stands next to the Terranea golf course and resort in Rancho Palos Verdes and looks past the fairways to the Pacific, Catalina Island and the coastline. It sold for $5,375,000.
Inside, vaulted ceilings with wood beams, wide-plank floors and floor-to-ceiling glass set the tone. The main level is open, with living, family, dining and sitting areas around a chef’s kitchen, and disappearing glass doors lead to a wraparound balcony facing south and west. The primary suite and a second bedroom with its own bath are on this level too. The primary suite has a fireplace, a private patio and a bath with a freestanding soaking tub and heated floors.
Downstairs are three more bedrooms, each with its own bath, a home theater, a laundry and craft room, and a recreation room with a wet bar and kitchenette. Glass doors on that level open to a covered, heated patio above the landscaped grounds, the pool and the spa. The home has five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, five full and two half, matching the top sale for the most bathrooms in the group. It has 5,251 square feet on 0.36 acres, a three-car garage, Lutron lighting, Sonos sound and a dedicated generator.
