About This Home
As of November 2016From a distance, nestled behind its white picket fence, this beautiful home looks like a simple, charming cottage, but one step inside reveals a far more sophisticated look & feel. A tiled entryway and arched opening lead to a stunning view of Monterey Bay, w/Rio del Mar beach unfolding below. Upstairs & downstairs, across the entire back of the house, sliding doors & a deck offer uninterrupted views of the sand & ocean beyond, framed by a canopy of green treetops. Both the master bedroom and living room feature fireplaces with tile hearths and custom carved mantelpieces. The kitchen features custom cabinetry and tile work, sleek granite counters, and a gas range as well as a convenient laundry area. Plantation shutters, a white picket fence, and wood-paneled ceilings with exposed beams add rustic charm to an open, airy layout. A short walk to the beach and restaurants.
