About This Home
As of June 2026Ocean views, thoughtful upgrades, and space to entertain, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath Rio Del Mar home checks all the boxes! Extensively improved by the current owners, the property has been transformed into a true entertainer's retreat featuring updated landscaping, aesthetic use of synthetic turf and new concrete retaining walls giving the yard a polished, upscale feel. They also added new fencing surrounding most of the property for added privacy. The ample parking which includes a 2-car garage plus space for up to 8 additional vehicles, makes hosting effortless. Inside the home shines with a 2023 kitchen refresh including new appliances, cabinetry, and countertops. Wood shutters throughout with motorized blinds in the living room and kitchen, adding both style and functionality. The upstairs deck was recently remodeled with porcelain tile and privacy rail. Just moments from Rio Del Mar Beach, you can easily enjoy morning walks, sunset runs, or a quick trip to the sand anytime!
