Let's start with the obvious: whoever designed this house refused to waste a single ocean view. Every room was thoughtfully positioned to capture the water. Sitting in the living room? Ocean. Cooking in the kitchen? Ocean. Gathered around the dining table? Still ocean. Large windows pull the coastline into the home so the views are part of everyday life. The kitchen & dining area may have the best seats in the house. Cooking dinner here means watching the waves roll in while the sky slowly shifts toward sunset. High-end appliances, a wine fridge & thoughtful upgrades make the space as functional as it is beautiful. Step out onto the spacious deck & the view opens up even more. It's perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply letting the sound of the ocean do its thing. When you're ready for the sand, private steps lead down toward the beach. The Point is just down the street ready for some surf. Another rare bonus: after nearly two years of work, Coastal Commission approval has been secured to re-stack the shoreline rocks, something many coastal homes never get. And yes sunsets here are exactly as good as you're hoping they are.
