Ahh, to live in a quaint small beach town... where strolls along the seaside, dining in waterfront cafes, and laughter with friends and family are everyday occurrences. Step into this exceptional custom-designed beach house in Seal Beach's Old Town, just steps from the Pacific Ocean — a retreat where elegance meets coastal comfort.
This remodeled, 2-story residence sits on an extra-wide, extra-deep lot with 3,455 square feet of living space, 3½ baths, and a flexible 4-bedroom floor plan (currently configured as 2-3 bedrooms plus guest quarters). Open beam ceilings and abundant outdoor space create an airy, welcoming ambiance throughout.
The Lower Level......
An approximately 370-square-foot subterranean wine cellar and office — easily reimagined as a media room, home gym, or additional workspace. This space is set up as a home office and wine and storage area.
Main Level.......
The centrally located gourmet kitchen incudes generous counter space, ample cabinetry, and a butler's pantry, flowing into a spacious family room.
Upper Level.....
All four bedrooms are found upstairs, including two primary suites. The forward-facing suite opens onto a private front deck with peek-a-boo ocean views. The second primary features vaulted beam ceilings and a spa-like bath with a jacuzzi tub, double sinks, and a separate shower. The remaining two bedrooms sit above the garage with their own bathroom, laundry area, and kitchenette — ideal for visiting family, college-age kids, or a guest suite.
Outdoor areas........
Multiple exterior spaces: a rear yard with an 8-person spa, an outdoor shower, spacious front patio and an oversized, fully finished garage with high ceilings and custom cabinetry. Other features of the property include recessed lighting and central air/heat throughout, with cathedral ceilings upstairs and an abundance of natural light.
Set on one of Old Town's premier streets, this home offers rare versatility — a natural fit for a separate guest space, multigenerational living, or possible ADU conversion (buyer to confirm with the city). This is more than just a home, it embodies the Seal Beach lifestyle.
