I truly believe the homes at Hermosa Pointe stand above the rest because of their excellent North Hermosa location paired with ocean views that cannot be duplicated unless you are willing to pay $6-10 million to be right on The Strand. It's an exciting project to be involved in as we see the evolution of future green building unfold right before us and suddenly become very available and accessible to new homebuyers in the area. Join us for the Grand Opening Event & Green Home EXPO at Hermosa Pointe, Saturday, July 18th, 11-5. Visit vendors and businesses such as Whole Foods, GrassFree, Midwest Solar, Reeds Natural Sodas, Color Me Green, Maid Brigade, Westco Smart Homes & more at our Green EXPO.

That big, ugly home at the corner of 29th and Hermosa Avenue and the "work in progress" home at 29th and Manhattan Ave. The big and ugly home is almost complete, after being build for over 4 years.
