About This Home

As of July 2024

A rare opportunity to live and work in the same place! Beautifully updated and expanded beach cottage with zoning that allows for local professional business use. Just one block from Coast Highway in the heart of the village near downtown, beaches, shops and restaurants. Sited on a street to alley lot, a double carport was recently built at the back. The prior garage in front was demolished and replaced by a new bedroom (or possible office) with french doors opening to a private courtyard. Another bedroom and a luxurious bath are at the back of the house. The living room has vaulted ceilings with distinctive wood beams and the formal dining room was created from a former middle bedroom. Fully remodeled kitchen with custom cabinets, stone counters, Franke farm sink, Bosch dishwasher, Sub Zero refrigerator, Wolf cook top and oven. Solid wood floors, gorgeous built-ins and many more designer touches throughout. All new landscaping installed with deep set stucco walls, planters, drip irrigation, low voltage lighting, outdoor dining areas and a beach shower with hot/cold water. New roof, rain gutters and drainage are also recent upgrades and there is potential for a second story. A major bonus to this property is the workshop and storage room under the house.
