About This Home
As of July 2016Beverly Hills, Bel Air, ok, Carmel is cool; but, if you want to be in the know, get in on the secret beach neighborhood of Rio Del Mar in Santa Cruz County. This California Spanish style home brings ocean views, whimsical gardens and a diverse natural landscaping that are unquestionably special. Design elements include soaring ceilings with exposed wood beams, arched windows, terra-cotta tile roofing, wrought iron balconies, painted tiles, and a lush entry courtyard all reminiscent of a 1920’s Californian era. Wake up to the waves crashing and walk two short blocks to the beach pathway to enjoy a day at the beach. The distinguished quality of this property is easily recognizable, are you the next honored owner?
