About This Home
As of April 2022A wall of windows greets your guests as they arrive at your classic midcentury beach house. Inside, exposed beams draw your eyes to the wood-paneled ceiling & a matching wall of windows at the other end, looking out on a spacious yard bordered by colorful trees. A cozy fireplace in a brick hearth warms the open, inviting space, w/a living room flowing seamlessly to a dining area & bright white kitchen anchored in the center of the space, perfect for entertaining. The two bedrooms continue the wood-paneled ceiling theme, wood paneling, & exposed brick walls, lending the rooms a cottage/cabin vibe that will make you feel you're on a perpetual vacation, even if you live in these rooms every day. A bathroom w/a shower, mud room w/storage space, & additional family room complete the single floor plan layout. The low-maintenance yard leaves plenty of time for nearby distractions in Aptos and Rio del Mar, including golf, tennis, beaches, restaurants, coffee shops, and hiking trails.
