About this home

Coastal panorama meets mid-century charm with endless potential! Perched high above the coastline, this light-filled 2-bed, 2-bath retreat blends dramatic ocean views with forest warmth. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame unobstructed panoramas across Monterey Bay to Santa Cruz through mature pines. Vaulted wood-beam ceilings flood the open layout with natural light, anchored by a massive brick fireplace. A wall of glass opens to a long deck accessed from the living room and a bedroom, allowing you to live and sleep above the bay. Tucked off the primary bedroom, a flexible bonus studio offers the ideal layout for a home office, art space, or nursery. Outside, the wooden deck provides covered and open-air zones to enjoy sweeping coastline, town, and mountain views below. Practical assets include a large 1-car garage plus off-street parking for 3 cars. Situated on a large, sloped lot with ample room for substantial additions, the property also features areas of 9-10 foot tall crawl space a prime candidate for conversion into a lower-level ADU or extra living space.
