*Shell Beach - Capistrano Cottage*
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! A vacation destination, with the privacy & comfort of home. Beautiful Shell Beach getaway by the sea, walkable to the ocean! Temperate climate year-round! Stroll down to the Pacific & enjoy sunsets. Centrally located; walkable to all of Shell Beach. Stainless appliances, hardwood floors, luxury queen beds, & blackout blinds.
An old home made new; with luxuries of a new home in a vintage cottage with character and charm. The home offers an avocado tree in the front yard, help yourself! There is also a back porch for your outdoor enjoyment, which is fenced in to accommodate pets. The home is professionally cleaned and left neat & tidy. There is a smart television and high-speed Wifi, no cable. I take pride in my home; and look forward to sharing it with you!
Walk anywhere in Shell beach! The Steaming Bean coffee shop is a lovely way to start the day, within walking distance. Numerous shops and spas scattered along Shell Beach Road. The Shell Beach Brewhouse is just across the street! Stroll down to the Pacific Ocean-- the rugged coastline is practically at your doorstep. Hike the ridge overlooking a pristine coastline. Rent kayaks/paddle-boards; or take a bike for a scenic ride. Edna Valley boasts miles of vineyards to wine-taste, picnic, and relax the stress away. The possibilities are endless! Avila beach is only a 5 minute drive. There is a trolley that runs on weekends transporting to Avila. Grover beach offers the option of drive-on beach access; and either beach allows bonfires to end the night! Roast marshmallows with the kids; or listen to the waves crashing while you star-gaze.

Why they chose this property
Of all the places I've traveled— this is my happy place. It has stunning natural beauty, and is like food for the soul whichever direction you venture. The walkability of the entire town of Shell Beach and proximity to the Pacific are what sold me. Convenient to SLO, Avila, Pismo, Edna Valley, Arroyo Grande, Paso Robles, Los Olivos, etc. I sincerely pray you come to know its value. I am attentive and happy to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible! I'll leave information about the surrounding area and ALL that it has to offer! In all honesty, the area speaks for itself with the utmost in beauty and charm.
