Welcome to Cayucos-by-the-Sea, a hillside retreat nestled in the coastal foothills along California's scenic Pacific Coast Highway. Spectacular, panoramic views of the ocean are available from every level, giving this home a unique charm and coastal living appeal, especially from the formal, yet cozy living room bathed in light. Relax in the large private en-suite bedroom complete with walk-in closet, elegant bathroom features, Italian-inspired tile shower, and jacuzzi tub. Two additional bedrooms share their own private level with another full bathroom and large laundry room. Three dining and flexible living spaces surround a large chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, prep island, pantry closet, loads of storage, and a powder room. Along with an attractive winding staircase surrounded by bright windows and landings, a new indoor elevator (on its way) connects the two-car garage, bedrooms, and upper kitchen and living rooms. Additional upgraded features include a gas fireplace, high ceilings with modern remote-controlled fans, built-in lighting throughout, hardwood floors, and ample storage. Several new windows coming to enjoy the fabulous views! Don't miss the huge storage area accessed via a drop-down ladder above the garage ceiling. Outdoors, enjoy low-maintenance landscaping with external stairs that lead to the front door. Two large front decks expand the outdoor living spaces with the backyard patio/deck large enough for entertaining, watching the beautiful ocean sunsets every day. Don't miss seeing this beautiful coastal home with easy access to nearby downtown Cayucos, Morro Strand state beach, hiking trails, and neighboring Morro Bay.
