Azure seas can be seen from this home on Benson Ave, located just a couple blocks from the ocean and the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve on the west side of Hwy 1 in Cambria. The property is composed of a Four lot parcel, which makes it feel private and spacious, yet still be in a neighborhood of homes. In the upside-down floor plan, all major living areas and the primary suite are on the second floor, enhancing the ocean and pine tree views. The focal point of the amply sized living area is a charming wall of windows facing west and the long window seat/bench below it. Just imagine lazy afternoons, sun streaming in, and a good book in your lap while also gazing at the sea. At one end of the living room is the fireplace surrounded by built-in cabinetry, the other end is a spacious dining area. From here, a sliding glass door leads to the ocean view deck and stairs to the yard below. The kitchen is composed of granite counters, numerous cabinets and tile floor. A guest bathroom is also located nearby. The primary suite is also located upstairs, making it wonderfully accessible for day to day living. It has a fireplace, ocean views, tall ceilings and a walk-in closet with organizers. Downstairs at entry level are two lovely guest bedrooms, a full bathroom and bamboo floor entry. The two car garage includes the laundry facilities and a laundry sink. This home has a magical feeling of light, views, and spaciousness.
