About This Home

You know that perfect balance between historic charm and modern convenience? This renovated Rio cottage captures it, with Spanish-style character and thoughtful updates for todays living. Hop down to the beach, stroll the train tracks to Aptos Village, or enjoy your sunny courtyard where morning coffee feels like a mini vacation. The renovated kitchen is your daily hub with new appliances, great storage, and an induction cooktop that makes cooking a pleasure. Hardwood floors run through bright rooms while the cozy dining room anchors family meals and dinner parties. Two ground-floor bedrooms and a full bath make living easy, while the upstairs primary retreat offers a private escape. Smart technology handles the details, irrigation responds to weather, laundry connects to your phone, Google Nest manages climate, and an EV charger powers up overnight. The courtyard invites morning stretches or evening refreshments, while friendly neighbors create that rare sense of community. Close to Venus or Pixie Deli for a bite, or hit the dog-friendly beach when the mood strikes. Whether you're downsizing, working remotely, or seeking a second home near the ocean, this Rio cottage proves charm and convenience can truly coexist.
