Description

EXPERIENCE TIMELESS BEACH COTTAGE LIVING! One of the few original beach cottages west of I-5, this charming single-story home is nestled within one of Solana Beach’s most sought-after coastal neighborhoods. The 2 bedroom, 1 bath main home preserves much of its original character with original oak flooring, milled pine walls, vaulted beam ceilings, and redwood exterior siding that reflects the warmth and authenticity of classic coastal living. A detached studio/flex space includes additional bath and offers versatility for guests, a creative workspace, office, or studio. The kitchen combines vintage charm with thoughtful functionality, featuring an induction cooktop, pull-out storage shelving, and a sunny breakfast nook perfect for casual dining. Abundant natural light and vaulted ceilings in both the living room and primary bedroom balance the home's rich wood interior with an open and airy feel. Additional features including cedar-lined closets, double-pane windows, and a Netatmo weather station enhance the home’s comfort and everyday functionality. Thoughtfully maintained and improved over time, the property also benefits from numerous system upgrades, including a newer roof and insulation (2018), updated electrical, sewer line and drainage improvements, and a newer tankless water heater, providing peace of mind while preserving the home’s original character and coastal appeal. Designed for both entertaining and quiet everyday living, the backyard feels like a private garden retreat with curated landscaping, raised garden beds, a gazebo, outdoor barbecue area, firepit, and swing, creating multiple spaces to gather, relax, and unwind. Just blocks from Fletcher Cove, Cedros Design District, local restaurants, coffee shops, and some of North County’s best beaches, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy classic coastal living in one of Solana Beach’s most desirable west of I-5 neighborhoods.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 87% nearby.
