About This Home

As of March 2019

Buyers quit! You have another opportunity to own this.Seacliff beach house! Great 2nd home, or live within walking distance of the State Park all year round. Fabulous potential to update a classic beach house ready for a new owner. Inverted floor plan brings the views into your living area. 2 bedrooms and a full bath down, master, full bath and the great room upstairs. The living area opens onto the view deck for sunset enjoyment, and to let the ocean breezes waft inside. Onsite parking for a boat, an RV, or multiple guests, allowing you to entertain friends from near and far. The galley kitchen is very serviceable as is, but could easily, and at a reasonable cost, be updated with granite and new appliances. The oversized garage has storage space for lots of bikes and water toys, as does the fenced yard. There's EZ access to Aptos, but you are also close to charming Capitola for even more local restaurants and shops. Come home to this beach charmer, and you may never want to leave!
