Welcome to the Salty Sunrise - oceanfront on Seacliff State Beach!
Welcome to Your Seaside Sanctuary
From the moment you step into the courtyard, you're greeted by the breathtaking beauty of the ocean—inviting you home in a way that’s nothing short of magical. The scene is straight out of a dream: vibrant English gardens in full bloom, the soothing rhythm of waves crashing on the shore, the fresh scent of salty sea air, and sweeping views over the sparkling Monterey Bay.
Lovingly remodeled in 2003, this home perfectly blends modern sophistication with timeless European charm. The thoughtful layout includes a spacious master suite, cozy rooms for the kids, and a refined guest suite for visitors. Unique architectural touches—like open-beamed ceilings, skylights, and stunning stained glass windows reclaimed from a historic San Francisco church—infuse the home with character you won’t find anywhere else.
French doors from the living and dining rooms open onto an expansive deck, ideal for soaking in the scenery or enjoying a sunset dinner. Just beyond the garden, is the majestic Pacific Ocean! Please note that storm damage has prevented easy beach access from the property which we are working to remedy. In the meantime, the beach is easily walking distance where we can walk on the sand in either direction for as long as you desire —perfect for peaceful morning strolls or long walks in either direction.
This is more than just a home—it's a coastal retreat where memories are made.

Our family had an absolute blast at this incredible beach house. Unbelievable views, great house and secluded! My favorite place I've ever stayed. Going back as soon as possible.
Love the place stocked with everything you’d need saw whales. All day was really cool. Only thing I would say is that needs some lights out back to light up the ocean at night otherwise loved it.
You can not get a closer location to the beautiful Pacific Ocean than this home. Directly on the beach, plenty of room for the 8 of us. One room is a cottage adjacent to the home with a separate entrance. Every room has its own bathroom. Plenty of towels, blankets, pillows. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. We enjoyed this home.
