About this House

Nestled in Cardiff-by-the-Sea’s prized Walking District, this coastal contemporary masterpiece—crafted by renowned architect Kevin Farrell—offers an inspired blend of architectural elegance and awe-inspiring ocean views. Spanning 3,265 square feet, this custom 5-bed, 3.5-bath residence is designed to capture the essence of seaside living. From the moment you step inside, floor-to-ceiling windows in the living and family rooms frame sweeping, unobstructed views of the Pacific, flooding the home with natural light. An open-concept layout flows effortlessly to the outdoors, where a rooftop deck invites sunset soirees and a sparkling pool promises year-round enjoyment. Warm hardwood floors, two inviting fireplaces, and a flexible bonus room—perfect for a nursery, yoga studio or home office—add comfort and versatility. A detached garage with alley access provides ease and privacy, while central heating and AC ensure effortless living in every season. Behind these walls lies a world of re-imagining and potential—just waiting for your creative touch to transform it into the home of your dreams. Craft your personal seaside sanctuary—add a fence and gate to transform the generous front yard space into a private, breezy coastal hideaway while entertaining guests on the ocean view outdoor space. This home offers an opportunity to remodel and personalize a coastal gem with significant architecture! All this, just steps from Cardiff’s iconic beaches, Seaside Market, and beloved local cafés and eateries. This is more than a home—it’s a front-row seat to the best of SoCal coastal living.

    "Great area and great schools. Some great parks and close to the beach. Great for being outside but the hills and lack of sidewalks in areas makes it less walkable than other areas. Package theft does happen and people don’t clean up after their pets well. The rent is also really high around here. "
