About this House

This spacious Aptos townhome is truly a gem. The updated home features refinished hardwood floors, carpets upstairs and hard surface flooring in the bathrooms. Modern window covers and light fixtures were recently installed. The two-story floor plan offers an abundance of space for entertaining, relaxing and working from home.

Downstairs has an open layout with a two-tone kitchen with mostly stainless steel appliances: gas range, and dishwasher. There is also a full sized, side by side fridge. Immediately off the kitchen is a dining area, seamless connecting to the living room with its wood burning fireplace. The patio slider off the dining area opens up to the quiet lawn area with a large deck with plenty of room for outdoor seating. Lastly, this level has a half bathroom, additional storage, as well as direct access to the attached two car garage (or one large car garage).

The sunny upstairs features a very large primary bedroom with ensuite and a balcony overlooking the trees. The ensuite bathroom is very spacious with additional closet and shower over tub. The second bedroom also oversees the trees and has a very large closet. There is an additional hallway bathroom in addition to the primary bedrooms ensuite.

    "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."
