About This Home
Contemporary coastal living meets elevated privacy in this Shell Beach residence, offering sweeping Pacific Ocean views and direct access to the natural beauty that defines the Central Coast lifestyle. Set on a generous 5,000+ sq. ft. lot with just over 1,800 sq. ft. of living space, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is designed for comfort, light, and connection to its surroundings. Positioned along a hillside street adjacent to open space, the property captures expansive ocean vistas, arguably some of the strongest view corridors on the block, creating a daily backdrop of coastline, sunsets, and coastal horizon.

The home balances everyday livability with a setting that feels elevated and retreat-like, offering a rare combination of privacy and proximity to the coast.

Downtown Pismo Beach, Avila Beach, and San Luis Obispo are all within easy reach, placing dining, shopping, and entertainment just a short drive away. This is a property that captures the essence of Central Coast living ocean views, outdoor access, and a quiet residential setting that still keeps you connected to everything that matters.
