About this home
Single Family · Built 1970
Welcome to this refined mid-century beach house with a modern touch, just steps from the sand, surf, and charm of Rio Del Mar Village. Designed with a reverse floor plan, the upstairs showcases open living and dining areas framed by walls of glass that fill the home with natural light and sweeping ocean views. A private bedroom suite on this level opens to two decks, one rooftop deck and the other adjacent, offering the perfect place to relax in the coastal breeze. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath and comfortable entryway that creates flexible options for guests, extended family, or rental potential. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof, new sliding doors, remodeled kitchen and baths, updated flooring, a tankless water heater, and a 200-amp electrical panel ready for an EV charger. With classic beachy style, thoughtful updates, and close proximity to beloved Rio Del Mar restaurants and the beach, this property presents a rare opportunity to own a coastal retreat. Aptos is truly one of California's most desirable seaside neighborhoods, tucked away for relaxation, views and comfort. Pacific ocean views from your primary suite, dining, living, kitchen and balconies. Your beach home awaits!
