The house is beautiful. The way it lives around the ocean, and within one of Capitolas most treasured neighborhoods, is what makes it memorable.
Set on Depot Hill, where people come simply to wander, admire the historic homes, take in the coastline, and absorb an energy that draws people in whether they live there or not, this home offers the rare chance to make that setting part of everyday life.
Expansive Pacific views draw you through the main living spaces, filling the home with light and creating a constant connection to the coast. Arched windows, soaring ceilings, skylights, and a dramatic staircase add architectural character, while the kitchen anchors it all with generous counter space, a Viking range, and an easy flow into the dining and living areas.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat with sweeping water views.
Outside, a broad stone patio extends the living space toward the ocean, made for morning coffee, long lunches, sunset dinners, and evenings that linger.
More than a home with a remarkable view, this is a chance to live within the historic charm and unmistakable character of Depot Hill.
