Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1973, the property is well-maintained but significantly dated. The kitchen features older wood cabinetry, white square tile countertops, and electric coil appliances consistent with a 20+ year old renovation. Popcorn ceilings and older carpeting throughout indicate the unit needs cosmetic updates and modernization to meet current standards.
This second-floor unit offers stunning, unobstructed ocean views and direct access to miles of private beach within a secure, gated community.
The property is sold fully furnished, providing a seamless move-in experience or immediate rental potential for vacation-home investors.
Residents enjoy exclusive access to a private gated community featuring tennis and pickleball courts, bird watching, and extensive coastal trails.
The monthly HOA fee of $844 represents a significant recurring expense that increases the overall cost of ownership.
The assigned elementary and middle schools have low ratings (2/10 and 3/10), which may deter long-term resident families despite the property's vacation appeal.
Stunning ocean views are included along with all furnishings in this lovely beach front, 2nd floor unit. Located in central Monterey Bay means a short drive to Carmel or Santa Cruz.
