17003 Haas Avenue, Torrance, CA 90504 (MLS # SB26130678)

On the last remaining parcel of Torrance's historic Hudson Dairy site, a rare development opportunity was met not with maximum density, but with maximum intention. AIA award-winning builder Jeff Widman and Josh Casner, in collaboration with Howard Crabtree of 912 Architecture and Leila Bick Design, conceived a thoughtfully composed collection of single-family residences whose frontage is defined by two 2-story Modern Ranch homes that bookend a central Traditional 2-story residence. This architectural arrangement creates a balanced streetscape that honors the established scale and character of the neighborhood while introducing a fresh, contemporary presence. The 2-story Modern Ranch is the boldest expression of that vision. The exterior sets the tone immediately. A custom architectural trellis draws you toward the entry, where a large-format Black Nickel porcelain tile wall makes a quiet but unmistakable statement. Custom smooth black stucco accents, architectural metal plinths framing each window, and strategically placed internal gutters give the facade a seamless, sculpture-like quality. Inside, the family room announces itself with 14-foot ceilings and a glass-wrapped atrium that pours light into the heart of the home, while a 60-inch passive-heat fireplace clad in custom fluted tile anchors the living room with warmth. The kitchen centers on a commanding island flanked by custom Belmont Rialto walnut cabinetry. Thermador appliances integrate seamlessly into the millwork, and above the range, a hand-troweled plaster hood adds a layer of artisanal craft that distinguishes the space. A generously proportioned dining area flows naturally from the kitchen, and a ground-floor bedroom and bath round out the lower level. Upstairs, three bedrooms each have their own ensuite bath and a dedicated laundry room. The primary suite opens to vaulted ceilings and a private balcony that creates an immediate sense of retreat, while the primary bath offers a solid-surface freestanding tub, walk-in shower, and double sinks. At the rear, oversized sliding patio doors connect the family room and kitchen to a private outdoor sanctuary anchored by a preserved mature tree whose canopy gives the yard an instant sense of age and permanence. Redwood fencing, layered privacy landscaping, and a generous patio complete an outdoor environment that fully embraces the California indoor-outdoor lifestyle. This is new construction built with the soul of something that always belonged.
