101 N Poinsettia | Manhattan Beach

Property Description

Located in the prestigious Hill Section of Manhattan Beach, this residence brings together the vision of Matt Morris Development, architect Forest Studio, and internationally acclaimed interior designer Teo Yang.

Completed in 2024, this extraordinary home spans approximately 8,500 square feet with an additional 1,200 square feet of covered outdoor living space, thoughtfully designed to balance refined living with exceptional entertaining. The residence offers five bedrooms, a private office, five bathrooms, and three powder rooms, along with a collection of thoughtfully integrated lifestyle spaces including a golf simulator room and ping-pong / gym recreation area.

Developed by Matt Morris, a highly respected Manhattan Beach builder with more than 30 years of experience along the South Bay coast, the home reflects his reputation for meticulous attention to detail and a deep commitment to craftsmanship. Morris is widely known for his collaborative approach, bringing architects and designers from outside the local market to introduce fresh perspectives and distinctive design to Manhattan Beach.

The residence reflects Teo Yang’s philosophy of quiet luxury and spatial harmony, drawing inspiration from traditional Korean hanok architecture, where light, proportion, and movement define the experience of space. Expansive walls of glass frame sweeping views of the Santa Monica Bay, allowing the rhythm of the ocean and natural light to become integral elements of the interior environment.

A refined palette of natural materials creates warmth and depth throughout the home, including wide-plank walnut flooring, fully grain-matched custom walnut cabinetry, limestone floors, radiant heated floors throughout, and hand-applied clay walls and ceilings, creating a calm and textural architectural atmosphere.

At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is anchored by a statement Le Cornue range and complemented by a fully equipped scullery kitchen, allowing for seamless entertaining while maintaining the elegance of the main kitchen.

Designed for both everyday living and exceptional entertaining, the residence opens to expansive outdoor living areas that capture coastal breezes and ocean views. One of the home’s most remarkable architectural elements is the hydraulic movable-floor pool, where the terrace itself lowers and fills with water—transforming the patio into a dramatic swimming pool and creating a striking architectural centerpiece rarely seen in residential design.

Throughout the home, indirect lighting has been thoughtfully integrated into the architecture, allowing the materials and textures to take on an entirely different character in the evening, softly illuminating the clay walls, limestone surfaces, and bespoke millwork.

Offered fully furnished with interiors curated by Teo Yang Studio, the residence presents a turnkey opportunity to own one of the most architecturally distinctive homes in Manhattan Beach.

Thoughtfully designed and impeccably executed, the residence represents a rare opportunity to experience architecture, craftsmanship, and coastal living at the highest level.
