About this home

Experience refined coastal living in this fully remodeled beach bungalow on Depot Hill, just blocks from Capitola Village. Thoughtfully designed, this turn-key home blends modern upgrades with relaxed seaside charm. The open-concept floor plan features hardwood flooring, high ceilings, and abundant natural light. The kitchen is both functional and elevated, with marble countertops, a large island with sink, and premium appliances from Wolf and Sub-Zero. Custom cabinetry, built-in storage, and clean design details create a space that feels both polished and livable. Offering three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a flexible trundle sleeping area, the layout adapts easily for guests or extended stays. Upgrades throughout include plumbing, electrical, furnace, and an on-demand water heater. The backyard includes an outdoor shower, privacy landscaping, and ambient lighting for evening use. A detached one-car garage adds storage and room for surfboards because, realistically, thats part of the deal here. Walk to the beach, catch a morning surf, or spend the evening in Capitola Village. This is the kind of Capitola property people wait for, and usually miss.
