Buy A Beach House In: Seal Beach, California

Average Home List Price: $400,338

No, this isn’t a joke. There really are affordable beach houses in the Golden State, particularly in Southern California. There’s only one small clause: All buyers have to be aged 55 or older.

An amazing gated retirement community called Leisure World is located just a short drive away from the perfect sands of Seal Beach.

It offers fantastic deals, including two-bedroom condos with expansive patios for around $300,000, and we also saw a one-bedroom condo on the community’s lovely property for $175,000. So if you’re over the age of 55, it’s a great opportunity you shouldn’t miss.

The rest of the town isn’t necessarily cheap, though. And buyers under the age of 55 should expect to spend much more if they want to live here, closer to a million to be exact, for a stick-built house.

On the other hand, you can also find a manufactured and mobile home for much less. Specifically, a two-bedroom home for roughly $455,000.
