The Slowest Year on Record for Townhome and Condo Sales in Fusion

My oh my has the real estate market in Fusion South Bay slowed this year.  There were 2o townhomes and condos that sold in the gated community of Fusion in 2021.  As of this post there have been only 8 closed sales in Fusion in 2022…..and the last one sold at the beginning of September.  We’ve posted in the past about year over year comparisons and every year since 2014 there have been about 18 homes a year that sell so six……is a bit off of the mark.

We haven’t even seen a listing in months at this point so look like 8 is the number for 2022.  Normally we would put a link in this post to the current homes for sale in Fusion…..unfortunately that wouldn’t accomplish much at this point.

Let’s hope 2023 picks up the listings and available homes a bit!

Here are the 8 homes that sold in 2022

3 Bedroom J Floorplan Hits the Market in Fusion

by

While it’s been an incredible real estate market in the gated community of Fusion, this latest listed is really going to be an indication as to whether home prices can reach a price point never seen before.  Given that the highest price a 3 bedroom unit that has sold was the recent sale of 5402 #7 at $998,000 this latest listing at $1.1M is going to show whether Fusion is ready for homes in the $1.0M range.

It was only a year ago that a 3 bedroom had never even sold in the $900,000s.  Given that 5509 #6 is the only home currently active and on the market you just never know, but with another 3 bedroom (g floorplan) priced at $949,000 and in escrow it’s definitely a challenge.

The home itself is in a very nice location in the community but is generally a “base” unit in which they did not have any builder upgrades at the time and don’t appear to have done much upgrading.  When the units were built buyers had the ability to upgrade items like hardwood floors, granite kitchen counters, etc and most of those are the entry level finishes offered at the time.

The J layout is the larger of the 2 three bedroom layouts with a listed 1,790 square feet (builder records indicate 1,790 feet…..tax records show 1,660….this is the same for all of the J units and not uncommon for condos).   The J floorplan is the only layout in all of Fusion in which all living spaces are on one level.  The only challenge is that it has several flights of stairs from the garage to get to the level but once there everything is a single level which is fantastic.    As with all Fusion homes this one has air conditioning and is in the award winning Wiseburn School District.  This home is in very great condition with a beautiful kitchen and  some nice upgrades.  Fusion is located just east of Manhattan Beach in the Hawthorne neighborhood of Hollyglen.

360 South Bay, Hollyglen And Del Aire Homes and Real Estate

by

Fusion South Bay is located in the Hollyglen area of Hawthorne CA. Hollyglen is a great alternative to neighborhoods like West Torrance and Southwood (Torrance) as it has a similar look and feel but prices are generally a bit more affordable. It’s also populare with commuters as it lessens the drive time by quite a bit with convenient access to the freeway. The neighborhood of Hollyglen sits west of the 405 Freeway, north or Rosecrans and south of El Segundo Blvd. Most of the homes in Hollyglen were post war 40’s and 50’s bungalows ranging between 900 and 1,400 feet. Prices have risen dramatically over the past few years with homes ranging between the low $700,000s to over a million. One of the strongest appeals to Hollyglen is the award winning Wiseburn School District. A past concern was the lack of a high school in the district but that’s changing with the completion of Wiseburn High School. At the top corner of the community sits Three Sixty at South Bay which is a very popular alternative to Fusion.

Three Sixty South Bay

Many home buyers that are interested in Fusion are also looking at 360. Three Sixty is a few years newer than Fusion and has amenities to rival a luxury hotel with multiple pools, jacuzzi, state of the art fitness center, incredible clubhouse rooms, dog park, multiple parks and a sport court with basketball and paddle tennis. There are a number of layouts and floorplans including the single family style detached Terrace homes, single level condos in the Flats and townhomes in the Courts, Row, Townes and more. Prices range from the low $600,000s for a studio in the Flats up to $1.3M for the largest of the Terraces.
