About This Home
Coastline, ocean and sunset views abound from this contemporary home in Alta Vista. The bold, while comfortable design adds character and practicality, while feeling innovative and creative. Unique triangular lot, desirably situated on the corner of Fontana and Alta Vista Way. The home underwent a quality, complete interior remodel in the 2017 era that still lives new, along with new exterior stucco in 2023. Every room has an ocean view, including perspectives looking to north and south coastlines through the multitude of picture windows and sliding glass doors. Living, kitchen, indoor dining and outdoor deck spaces are on the main level. The bright Chef's kitchen is complete with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry and Brazilian Taj Mahal Quartz countertops with full backsplash. Three bedrooms and two baths upstairs, including beautiful use of Thassos & Blue Celeste marbles, French limestone and Taj Mahal Quartz stones. Warm wood elements throughout, including solid core mahogany doors, oak hardwood flooring and redwood framed glass railings and decking. Systems include updated copper plumbing, electrical wiring, lighting, roofing, gutters/downspouts, central heating with furnace one year new, Marvin dual paned windows and sliding doors. Two, finished single car garages are connected to interior laundry and additional storage rooms. Scenic Alta Vista neighborhood is known for it's endless ocean vistas, perched up above the ocean, yet not too high up for ease of access to the sands of Victoria Beach and nearby coves. A contemporary work of art takes care, craftsmanship and artistic touches. All of these elements have been infused into this residence over time, resulting in a remarkably quality property that is as timeless as it is functional.
