A Cottage with Room to Spare in the Heart of Capitola. 622 Sunset is a beach-town home built for however life shows up. Up front, two bedrooms and a loft; out back, a one-bed, one-bath all to its own. Two connected spaces for guests, extended family, or a quiet home office. Room for everyone, or room to get away, sometimes in the same weekend. And all of it a short roll or stroll from Gayle's Bakery, Capitola Village, and Capitola Beach. Here the whole weekend happens on foot; coffee and a pastry in the morning, the sand in the afternoon, evenings in the Village; the kind of place where you park the car on Friday, leave the phone in a drawer, and don't reach for either until Monday. Everyday details make it easy, too: storage at the end of the carport and a laundry room you can reach from the bedroom or the patio. Whether you want everyone under one roof or space to spread out, 622 Sunset offers real beach-town living with the flexibility to grow around you; walkable, low-maintenance, and moments from the water.
