Bird's Eye View of Beachfront Property
The setting is impossible to beat, bordered on one side by the Santa Ynez Mountains, on the other by the Pacific Ocean. Beautifully landscaped terraced gardens tucked in amongst palm trees lead all the way down to the water.
Beachfront Backyard With Lawn and Terraces
A terraced landscaping approach results in the backyard having a secret garden appeal with many little terraces to discover among the garden beds. A seawall protects the property from the waves.
Small Patio With Pacific Ocean View
Pick a patio, any patio (the property offers many) and lose yourself in those wide open ocean vistas. The yard borders 130 feet of private beach.
