    What's special

    This charming little beach cottage is located in one of Morro Bay's finest neighborhoods. It has been a family owned home since 1960. The home is in good condition. It has a raised foundation, laminate, carpet, and vinyl flooring throughout, lots of built in cabinets, and a well equiped kitchen featuring gas stove, microwave, dishwasher, and trash compactor. The laundry room comes equipped with washer and dryer. The single car garage was professionally converted to a 3rd bedroom years ago to accomodate a growing family. There is a partial coastal view from the living room, master bedroom and the front porch. Best of all... you will reside within walking distance to Morro Bay's world famous Embarcadero, downtown shopping, restaurants, movie theater, and just 5 blocks from Morro Bay Golf Club, which is one of the most iconic golf cources in California. The home is in move-in condition. There are two avocado trees in the back yard along with a large beautiful built in deck for lots of fun parties, bird watching or just to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee in the peaceful, serene surroundings breathing in the fresh ocean air.
