Hello everyone, I'm the cutest little beach cottage located on a quiet street adjacent to Moran lake with beautiful views of the beach and bay. I'm not perfect for sure. My bones are old but strong. My kitchen and bath certainly won't make you swoon. What I do have is character, a large beautiful lot, great views and a lovely beach neighborhood. I know you will want to knock me down and build something big and new. My hope is you will fall in love with me the way I am and enjoy a life time family fun and memories. Come visit me and hopefully make me yours.

Build your dream retreat: Close-in country living on the Upper West Side. Prime location and panoramic views, on a level, acre-plus, buildable, close-in rural parcel. The zoning says it all--RR Rural Residential, the best of both worlds. Bordered on the north and west by a Natural Reserve, and southeast on the Highview Drive rural but close-to-town community. This is truly the last end-of-the-road parcel on Highview Drive: a hidden, known-only-to-locals community (bordering the better-known Meder Street rural estates to the south). Panoramic views of wildlands, coastal prairie, ocean, redwoods -- and stunning sunsets. The existing cottage is a recent remodel: 1 bath, 1 bedroom plus sleeping loft. Approximately 700 square feet (expandable to 1200 feet). The woodstove and loft give the space a cozy charm. Use it as a guest house or ADU. (There are also a couple of useful outbuildings on this acre-plus property.) New septic system installed 2006 and sized for 4 bedrooms, anticipating a new large house. Unique is an often overused real estate term, but one that rightly applies to this opportunity. Its a really special property, with one of the West Sides best-kept secret views, in a peaceful, private setting.
