Standing above Surfside, California, the legendary Water Tower House is one of the most iconic coastal homes in the state. Listed for $5,500,000, this historic property at 1 Anderson St, Surfside, CA 90743 features 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 2,828 square feet of living space.

Originally built in the late 1800s to store water for passing steam trains, it was transformed into a private home in 1985. Today, it offers incredible views from the beach to the mountains and a truly one-of-a-kind living experience.

Go up another level and you’ll find two more ensuite bedrooms. Each has big windows with ocean or mountain views. At the top of the home is the Rotunda, a round living space with wood beams, tall windows, and a stained-glass cupola at the ceiling.

Light fills the room, and a compass rose is built into the hardwood floor. The round staircase that connects the levels features detailed wood and ironwork.

This home is full of fun surprises, including a model train that winds through the ceiling beams. There’s custom shelving, colorful glass art, a laundry room, and garage parking.

The location is ideal, just off Pacific Coast Highway and close to Sunset Beach, Huntington Harbor, and local favorites like Captain Jack’s and Woody’s Diner.

If you want a home that’s full of history, style, and unbeatable views, the Water Tower House is a rare chance to live somewhere truly special.
