Property Description

Welcome to 196 Harvard Lane, a stunning showcase of modern coastal design in the heart of Seal Beach's sought-after College Park West neighborhood. This home has been meticulously transformed under the guidance of renowned local designer Rachel from Preen Design, leaving no stone unturned in the process.

Virtually everything in this 4-bedroom 2-bathroom home is brand new, blending contemporary aesthetics with luxury finishes. Inside, you'll be captivated by the vaulted living room ceiling, which adds to the open, airy feel of the space.

Freshly installed drywall, interior doors, and custom molding lend a sleek finish throughout the home. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with Monogram appliances and Calacatta stone countertops that exude luxury, with a built-in wine fridge. The bathrooms are completely revamped with top-of-the-line fixtures, making the home feel like a modern spa retreat. The built-in laundry area features brand-new high-end Miele washer and dryer.

No detail was overlooked in the outdoor areas either. The front yard and siding have been fully redesigned, complemented by a charming Dutch wood front door. In the back, you'll find a new paver patio, patio cover, and vinyl fences that ensure both beauty and privacy. The Tesla charger in the garage makes this home future-ready, while mostly new plumbing and electrical systems including a new York 4 SEER HVAC system and brand-new roof offer peace of mind for years to come.

This house is more than just a remodel—it's an architectural masterpiece, ready for the pages of Architectural Digest. Don't miss this chance to own a pristine example of Seal Beach coastal modernism!

College Park West in Seal Beach is a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood known for its pride of ownership and strong community feel. Built in the 1960s, the homes sit on spacious lots between 5k to 7k square feet, offering more space compared to the nearby College Park East. This gives the neighborhood a more open, suburban feel. Enjoy close proximity to local amenities such as Edison Park, community gardens, and the San Gabriel River trail. With only one road in and out, traffic is minimal, creating a safer environment for families, especially children who often play outside. The area's highly rated Seal Beach/Los Alamitos School District is also a major plus for families. This mix of community pride, safety, and access to excellent schools makes College Park West a hidden gem in Seal Beach.
