About This Home

As of November 2019

Ocean View, seaside living at its finest! It's like sailing on a ship as soon as you open the front door and are greeted by the shimmering blue Pacific and Monterey Bay. Light and bright kitchen-living area opens to large ocean view deck perfect for entertaining or casual living. Located just a short stroll to the neighborhood beach path and miles of pristine beaches, this essentially new home has been rebuilt from the ground up. The ocean view Master Suite with view deck features a luxurious full bath with tub and large walk-in shower and walk-in closet. A separate ocean view family room with fireplace has a large brick patio and could double as another Master suite. Totally separate lower floor area perfect for hobby, music or media room. Great seasonal rental potential to offset expenses. Wow!
