    What's special

    An original treasure, built as a seaside respite within one of Southern California’s earliest established oceanfront communities, this delightful property is one of the last authentic structures retaining the charm of a bygone era – and is available for sale for the first time in over 65 years. Set directly on the sands of desirable Sunset Beach (named for the amazing sunsets), with a spectacular panorama of the Pacific and unobstructed beach access, the residence is a presentation of classic coastal-style architecture enhanced by high quality resilient materials and time proven engineering. At the time of construction, the oceanfront enclave’s homes lined the water’s edge and were built with unique attributes to withstand storms. Decades later, this home stands virtually unaffected by the elements and is now protected from the tideline after coastal restoration. Meticulously maintained, the main house with four bedrooms – one fashioned with a kitchenette; two baths; and accommodating spaces for dining, entertaining, and relaxation is finished with solid redwood and complemented by over-height, beamed ceilings – up to 15 feet; an oversized wood-burning fireplace; and sparkling views from the primary bedroom and living areas. Enhancing the 2520 square-foot parcel – a spacious guest house or separate unit, with its own kitchen and bath, set just above the rare three-car garage. Further distinguishing the offering – a private, outdoor courtyard with enclosed shower and two changing rooms as well as an oceanfront patio overlooking uninterrupted views of the beach and Pacific Ocean – that enjoys the sights and sounds of the seashore. An extraordinary opportunity affording myriad unique lifestyle opportunities in an idyllic setting – with optimal proximity to the region’s finest amenities, along with the rare appeal of a beach community, its longstanding events, and neighborhood resources.
