The story

Here you don't just get a glimpse of the ocean - you get the full show. This Rio del Mar contemporary home sits farther out than the rest on the street, offering sweeping Monterey Bay and coastline views from nearly every room. With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 2,937 square feet on a quiet cul-de-sac, its as spacious as it is stunning. The kitchen is a true conversation starter, featuring hardwood and copper inlays, a six-burner gas range, pot filler, Miele dishwasher, and a large island with a prep sink. Hardwood floors run throughout. The primary suite boasts its own fireplace, walk-in closet, built-ins, and a view right from bed. Two guest rooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the fourth bedroom easily transforms into an upstairs office. A separate family room opens to view decks, a hot tub, and lush terraced gardens with mature fruit trees. Extras include a 10kW Generac whole-house generator, whole-house water filter, two-car garage, and carport. Just minutes to Rio del Mar Beach, Aptos Village, Seascape, and scenic trails - this one truly stands apart.
