Surfside Colony Gated Community Sees Record Trade

Behind the gates of Seal Beach’s Surfside Colony a new best was set for the beachside community in 2025’s final weeks.

The guard-gated neighborhood of about 260 homes, part of Seal Beach, on Friday saw the closing of 105A Surfside Avenue for a little over $6.4 million, or $1,623 per square foot. That edges past Surfside’s previous record set with the 2023 sale of 99A Surfside Avenue, which traded for an even $6.4 million, or $1,829 per square foot.

It also makes for the third Surfside deal in the first two weeks of the month, with the other two trades also located in the A row.

Coldwell Banker Realty’s Kimia Vakili represented the seller. The brokerage’s Ash Rizk brought the buyer, a Los Angeles County family that was looking for a coastal property, according to a Coldwell Banker spokesperson.

The Orange County property last traded about a year ago for $4.5 million, or $1,140 per square foot, to a Corona del Mar limited liability company called Pelican Real Estate Group, property and state records indicate.

The four-bedroom, six-bathroom home was rebuilt in 2000 and saw a full renovation completed earlier this year. The 3,948-square-foot property has two primary suites, an office, European oakwood flooring and chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry.

Sometimes referred to by agents as Malibu South, Surfside is spread across less than 1 acre of land and is governed by a five-member board of directors. The nonprofit corporation was created in 1930 with a community designed in three rows, labeled A, B and C. Row A consists of oceanfront properties, while C homes most commonly do not have ocean views. B offers a mix.

Coldwell Banker’s been on a tear in Seal Beach this year, which is seeing home prices across the city rise. The median home price in October was $488,500, which was up 18.4 percent year-over-year, according to Redfin data.

Coldwell Banker’s Garrett Weston held the listing on 308 Ocean Avenue, which sold for $12.5 million, or $1,446 per square foot, in July to mark the city’s highest-priced deal this year.

Put into a broader context, the latest Surfside deal is Seal Beach’s third-priciest residential closing in 2025.
