About This Home

As of July 2024

When you think of a cozy beach cottage, this is what comes to mind! This quaint, hard to find, gem is just steps from beach access and will charm you with its nostalgic beauty. After a day in the sun and sand, enjoy the peace and quiet of a secluded back yard and deck, as you grill your catch and enjoy the bounty with family and friends. Then finish the perfect summer day sitting on the front deck, watching a spectacular sunset over the Pacific. Springtime brings a host of color with beautiful perennials and flowering shrubs. Cool nights? After a brisk walk on the beach, throw a log on the fire, cozy up, and take the chill off. The primary suite includes a large, updated, ensuite bathroom, and a study/sitting room behind that which opens to the rear deck. Kitchen, dinning, and living rooms all open to each other, with a slider to the back deck. There is ample storage in the basement. This cottage is truly a charming slice of days gone by!
