About This Home

As of October 2021

The only thing better than listening to the crashing surf from your balcony is walking to it in under 5 minutes. That's what you get at this Rio Del Mar Beach stunner. Though you're a quick walk to the sand, your street is a peaceful reprieve from the crowds, with large oak trees creating a private facade. Inside, the eclectic style and vibrant colors bring this home to life. Beautiful features like rich hardwood floors, Spanish tiled stairs, & beams in the living room punctuate the decor with a curated detail. The sellers are even willing to include the fun furniture and bright decor so you can keep the fiesta going after you move in. Walk out to the balcony on the top floor where you can see a peek of the ocean, feel the salty breeze & listen to the melodic surf; there's plenty of room out there to host a few friends or enjoy an al fresco dinner. Whether you plan to keep this beach home for yourself or invest in it as a rental, this location can't be beat.
