With 1,058 sqft of living space on a spacious 5,706 sq ft lot, it offers room to relax and soak up the coastal lifestyle with surfing just a mile away.

Fruit trees in the backyard features apple, lemon, peach passion fruit, avocado, blackberries and raspberries. Inside, hardwood floors and soft natural light give every room a warm and inviting feel.
