Homes on the tour include several different styles, including beach chic, plantation, coastal charm, contemporary, Eastern seaboard, and Old World meets New World.

Proceeds go to benefit some 650 children in grades pre-k through 8th grade who attend American Martyrs' schools. The Catholic parochial school, which has deep roots in the Manhattan Beach community, shares its basketball gymnasium and baseball diamond with local youth programs and has been a welcome fixture on the MB scene for years.
