543 beach drive

Welcome to the pinnacle of California coastal living at 543 Beach Drive, situated within the private gated community of Rio Surf and Sand. Redefined by a flawless renovation over the last three years, this extraordinary beachfront residence captures the essence of refined oceanfront luxury. Honed limestone floors run continuously throughout the home, uniting the sleek interior design with timeless durability. Designed with scale and dramatic light in mind, the generous public rooms feature an effortless open layout ideal for hosting grand gatherings or enjoying quiet, intimate evenings as the sun dips below the horizon.

Drawing your gaze toward the ocean, expansive glass doors line the public spaces and open onto a spacious deck, creating a seamless connection between the home interior and the pristine shore below.
