About This Home

As of September 2017

Feel like you're on vacation all year with easy living at the beach! This Concha Loma cottage is on one of the most requested streets backing to Carpinteria’s State Park and the ocean beyond. Take a short stroll to surfing, boogie boarding and swimming at nearby Jelly Bowl and Tar Pits. The Carpinteria Bluffs, Nature Preserve and seal rookery are minutes away. The den, cozy 3rd bedroom with attached bath and master bedroom open to the expansive back yard with new landscaping and hardscape and ocean views. The master bedroom has an attached bath featuring PJ Milligan cabinetry that also opens to the hall. Sweet 2nd bedroom faces the front yard with newly freshened plantings. The kitchen, also boasting custom PJ Milligan cabinetry, has new cork flooring. As a bonus, ride your bike or walk over the foot/bike bridge to nearby downtown Carpinteria and all it has to offer....restaurants, coffee, breweries, boutiques and surf shops. .A fabulous opportunity to enjoy the sea breeze, hear the sound of the surf and own your piece of paradise. Go ahead, soak up the sun, put your toes in the water and search no more for your lost shaker of salt. You are home!
