About This Home
As of April 2026Situated on an oversized fenced lot with a small portion left open to allow wildlife to pass through, this inviting home offers beautiful ocean views and a peaceful coastal setting. The west-facing, enlarged newer deck provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy sunsets over the Pacific. Inside, the kitchen and spacious great room feature ocean views and a dramatic vaulted wood ceiling, while a striking floor-to-ceiling rock masonry fireplace serves as the focal point of the living space. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated in 2017, along with the installation of new appliances. Additional improvements include a newer furnace and ducting, an upgraded electrical panel, and a Powerhouse natural gas generator to provide peace of mind during stormy nights when the power may go out. The home also features newer Milgard dual-pane tempered glass windows and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. A spiral staircase leads to a unique upper lookout with 360-degree views of the Santa Lucia Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. The property also includes a greenhouse for gardening enthusiasts and a hot tub for relaxing evenings under the stars. Artistic touches throughout the home, including handcrafted fireplace mantel details and custom light globes created by artists, add warmth and character. Very well maintained and move-in ready, this special property offers comfort, views, and a distinctive coastal lifestyle.
