4244 Via Pinzon Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274

The classic Valmonte family home -- this is the kind of home we who grew up in Valmonte grew up in. 4 bedrooms 3 baths -- 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on main (street) level, one each downstairs. Tastefully remodeled kitchen (see pictures), light and spacious living and dining rooms opening onto a lovely large deck with view of the hills. Beautiful hardwood floors on this level. On the lower level is the 4th (could be guest) bedroom, 3/4 bath, large family room with wet bar, very handy office/storage room (to left at bottom of stairs), laundry, laundry chute, and access to large flat rear garden. 2-car garage with auto-opener, and nearly new Monier Cedarlite roof. For no extra charge you get that coveted Valmonte climate, generally acknowledeged to be the best on the Hill, as well as easy off-Hill commute via Via Valmonte/Hawthorne Blvd. Quiet, low-traffic street -- in fact, we played in it when I was a kid. This home has been very well-maintained by the current long-time owner. I am occasionally asked the meaning of the street names in PVE. The Pinzon brothers (Martin and Vicente) were the captains of 2 of Columbus' ships, the Pinta and Nina, respectively. The street is named after them. First time for sale in 30 years.
