Description

Step into the past. An original Rio Del Mar Beach bungalow. Built is 1940 and at that time perched on a hill overlooking the beach and bay. Even today with the neighborhood having grown up around it the home enjoys beautiful views of the ocean, bluffs at New Brighton Beach and sunsets. The home has been owned by the same family since 1978 and had the same tenant for 47 years. Prime for a remodel and restoration. The hame has been purchased by one of the many families that have been walking by years and dreaming of bringing the back to its former glory.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from June 12, 2026

    "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."
