232 Aptos Beach Drive

This exquisite 4-bedroom abode perfectly blends French Provincial charm with the modern beach lifestyle, enjoying ocean views on a tree-lined drive, just a short stroll past the cafes and delis that greet your morning walk out to the broad sands of Rio Del Mar State Beach. Artfully constructed by master craftsman Bob Frisbey in 1998 with surfaces of knotty pine and plush carpeting to set a tone of warmth, complemented by open beams and vaulted skylit ceilings above. The home offers a pleasant variety of environs to enjoy either quietly or with others, depending on your mood. The living room circles round a wood-burning fireplace, while the family room provides a more sequestered space. And the kitchen has both an intimate breakfast nook and an expanded dining room, fit for holiday gatherings that can spill out onto the back yard deck with its large spa and welcoming hangout areas. Also designed to be practical with convenience in mind, courtesy of thoughtful touches like having the laundry tucked in by the primary suite, plus ample parking with a 2-car garage accessed by spiral stairs, and even a "hobbit hideaway" storage or workshop space for the crafter, contractor or hobbyist. Congratulations, you have found a true haven of comfort and elegance on an idyllic coastal setting.
