2450 Montgomery Ave, Cardiff By The Sea, CA 92007

Property Description

White-water ocean views, small-town coastal living. It’s just a short walk from this lovely home to beaches, parks, nature preserves with miles of walking trails, the local library, coastal shops and restaurants. Mere minutes from Encinitas and I-5, Cardiff-by-the-Sea has nurtured and preserved that small-town feel and local “surfer” vibe. Your own private oasis: With two entries through lush garden areas, this stunning home on a quiet street in a vintage Southern California community offers an open concept top floor with tons of windows to take advantage of white-water ocean views from every room in the house but one. Wake to a view of the Pacific Ocean from the master suite, then enjoy your morning coffee from the balcony overlooking quiet, private gardens and the sea beyond. In the evening, lose yourself in breathtaking sunsets. The unique floorplan allows for creativity and flexibility of use. Upstairs you’ll find living space and room for an office or gym. The lower floor has Saltillo tile and is an airy, welcoming space for dining and entertaining. Skylights throughout allow lots of natural light. The lavish master bath features tumbled granite countertops. A large, open kitchen features modern appliances, a spacious island/work area and, yes, an ocean view! The guest room, with its own bath, may be the one room without an ocean view but the French doors open onto a lush courtyard of fountains and fruit trees, including lemons, limes, oranges, and avocados. A detached studio (with carport) makes a great guest cottage, rental, or private office. The safety deck over the carport is the ideal spot to sunbathe or have friends over to watch the sunset or even holiday fireworks up and down the coast. Amenities include energy-efficient tankless water heater and three Daikin Mini-Split multi-zone ductless HVAC.
