The spot is narrow, but fits a small car (or larger car with expert parking skills). Car #2 noses in behind car #1 and can overhang into the street by about 18-24". This parking practice is common in the neighborhood.
There is a third parking spot in the driveway that is occupied by the owners classic car. Please take care to avoid the classic car when parking.
South Bay Beach Cities (Manhattan, Hermosa, Redondo, El Segundo, Playa Del Rey) are definitely a "bubble", separated enough from the bustle of LA that they do feel like a true escape. Staying in the bubble and hanging at the beach is highly acceptable and great get away to escape the bustle of LA for a weekend.
If you don't have a rental car, I recommend using UBER (it is far better value than a regular taxi). It is very easy to download the app on your smart phone and start using it instantly.
