Description

Mediterranean soul, ocean air, and a courtyard that makes you forget the rest of the world exists. 1931 Dolphin Dr. is a Coastal Mediterranean retreat with a reverse floor plan that puts the living where it belongs: upstairs, open, and facing the ocean. Vaulted open-beam ceilings, Saltillo tile floors, and a white stucco fireplace create a warmth that hits immediately. The kitchen flows directly into the living and dining space and out onto a large upper deck through French doors. Ocean views, sunset cocktails, and apps straight from the kitchen. This layout was made for people who entertain. The upstairs primary suite offers custom built-ins, a walk-in closet, and private bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level. The garage features epoxy floors and a bonus space that could serve as storage or dark room. Hand carved vintage wood doors open to a private courtyard, a detail that sets this home apart before you ever see the view. Beyond the backyard, a greenbelt buffer creates privacy and breathing room. Minutes from Seascape Beach, Seascape Resort, Seascape Sports Club, and the Golf Club. Venus, The Point, and Cavalletta are all close by. The paw prints in the terracotta tiles stay. All that is left is you. Your Aptos chapter starts here.

    "I use the Highway which is close to my neighborhood. Outside of that, the county bus system is the only public transit. The commute traffic is bad. Aptos is bikeable around the highway but there are many tight roads and can be hilly. "

    "The area is beautiful and prolific for plants. Neighbors are friendly, there’s easy access to Monterey, Carmel and Big Sur. Nearby development has been blossoming with new businesses opening. Quick access to the beach and close proximity to Niscene Marks make this the perfect combo of ocean meets forest. "

    "I have lived in this neighborhood 15 years and it’s been great. The large pine trees that still remain in Rio Del Mar are because of Mr Spreckels and that this land was his private hunting ground. He preserved the land as best as he could for future generations."
