About This Home

As of November 2025

Tucked away in coveted Rustic Canyon, this inviting two-story retreat combines timeless and ease of modern California living. The entry opens into a welcoming great room where family and friends can naturally gather. An open chef's kitchen flows into the bright living and dining spaces, warmed by rich hardwood floors, a classic fireplace, and walls of windows that invite in sunlight and views of the garden. On the main level, you'll find two spacious bedrooms and a full bath ideal for children, guests, or a home office. Upstairs, the primary suite creates a peaceful sanctuary, accompanied by a versatile fourth bedroom or office, plus a generous flex space perfect for a playroom, media lounge, or gym. Every corner has been thoughtfully designed to adapt as your family grows. Adding to the home's unique appeal are two ways to arrive: a charming canyon path that feels like a secret and a private parking area off Mesa Road with steps that lead directly down to the house. For those seeking even more potential, the Mesa Drive Access Point offers an excellent development opportunity, creating the option for a future build such as a garage and/or an ADU. The house offers an experience of the best of both worlds, a feeling of seclusion and retreat, balanced with the convenience of Rustic Canyon Park, State Beach, top-rated Canyon Elementary, and nearby shopping and dining just minutes away. This is more than a home; it's a lifestyle that celebrates nature, community, and the joy of coastal living.
