Property Description

Reimagined 1887 Victorian cottage with unobstructed views of the Van Damme State Beach and vistas to the south. The Beach Trail Cottage, with its deep front porch, decorative shingles, high-pitched roof angles and double-hung windows, seamlessly blends the old with the new for an unpretentious and inviting space translated through an elegant lens. The first floor of this two-story cottage features a fully-appointed kitchen, a spacious living room with nautical touches, a marble bathroom with heated towel rack, a downstairs bedroom, and radiant floor heating throughout. The second floor is devoted to the spacious master bedroom with a jaw-dropping ocean view. Adjacent to the main home is a 720+- square foot garage converted into an airy studio space and gym (with the new California Accessory Dwelling laws, there may be a possibility to turn this into a legal separate unit). Double porches in the front and side--plus a large garden area--promote privacy and outdoor living. Currently operated as a sought-after vacation rental with a historical record of 80% occupancy = $100,000+ annual income. Situated on a quiet county lane at the head of the southern trail to Van Damme State Beach and is bordered to the North by a private access that leads from the Headlands Trail through to the Spring Ranch Coastal Preserve. Trail runs for one and half miles above the rocky intertidal shelf, through coastal Cypress and ferns, opening onto spectacular meadows and small, year-round waterfalls that cascade down to the sandy beach below. With curious sea lions, spotted harbor seals, hunting osprey, and many tide pools within steps from your door, this trail is an ever-changing journey of discovery.
