The main living area is bright & open with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a landscaped garden for a peaceful sense of privacy. The kitchen anchors the home with double ovens, three sinks, a walk-in pantry & a serving pantry with wine fridge, 2nd dishwasher & ample cabinetry - ideal for everyday living or entertaining.

Upstairs, the primary suite & second bedroom sit beside a family room with wet bar opening to a large deck for sunsets, ocean glimpses & coastal breezes. With elevator access between levels, abundant storage & multiple covered decks & patios, this home offers understated sophistication moments from the beach & all that Aptos has to offer.
