Why they chose this property

This house is in walking distance from the harbor, a gourmet grocery store, Michelin star restaurant, fresh seafood, live music, surfers beach, shopping, miles and miles of coastal trail, and endless hiking right outside your door. If you don't want to do any of this, you can still enjoy stunning views from the comfort of our home.
