Those houses are on a one-way street (going the wrong way IMO) with minuscule street frontage and no real yards to speak of. Kids have to cross either the freeway or a busy six-lane street to get anywhere. No blue-water views in that neighborhood, except for some peek-a-boo views … and on that side of the freeway you’d need a telescope to see the water. At least there’s a sound wall on both sides of the 5 now.
But $755K isn’t so egregious … I’ve seen much worse going for much more in that area.
