Most people dream about waking up on the beach. Youre about to buy that dream at ground level. Nestled between Santa Cruz & Monterey, this gated beachfront community is known for its pristine beaches & unique properties. This renovated condo sits directly on the sand where your morning coffee happens 20 steps from crashing waves. While others pay resort prices for ocean access, your investment works for you around the clock, generating vacation rental income with no permit needed! The complex doesn't mess around with amenities, tennis courts, pickleball, electric car charging, a gift shop, & a peaceful pond for those rare moments when ocean views aren't enough. Hiking trails snake along the coast right from your doorstep, offering bluff-top perspectives that make your investment look understated. Walk from your front door to the beach without navigating parking lots or entrance fees, a luxury that becomes more valuable every time you experience it. Whether youre here full-time or part-time, you're living the life that fills other peoples vacation wishlists. Your biggest decision will be whether to book the next guest or keep the calendar clear for yourself.
