The house is beautiful. The way it lives around the ocean, and within one of Capitolas most treasured neighborhoods, is what makes it memorable. Set on Depot Hill, where people come simply to wander, admire the historic homes, take in the coastline, and absorb an energy that draws people in whether they live there or not, this home offers the rare chance to make that setting part of everyday life. Expansive Pacific views draw you through the main living spaces, filling the home with light and creating a constant connection to the coast. Arched windows, soaring ceilings, skylights, and a dramatic staircase add architectural character, while the kitchen anchors it all with generous counter space, a Viking range, and an easy flow into the dining and living areas. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat with sweeping water views. Outside, a broad stone patio extends the living space toward the ocean, made for morning coffee, long lunches, sunset dinners, and evenings that linger. More than a home with a remarkable view, this is a chance to live within the historic charm and unmistakable character of Depot Hill.

2 Beds ⋅ 1 Baths ⋅ ML82059979 MLS

Some homes make you fall in love the moment you arrive. This is one of them. Step inside, and the calm is immediate. Light spills through vaulted, beamed ceilings, the blue of Monterey Bay fills every window, and every detail feels deliberate, as it should be. Modern without trying too hard, elegant without feeling formal. Built in 1938 on land once part of Claus Spreckels' Aptos Rancho, this home carries a rare thread of history, long before Rio became the neighborhood it is today. Living spaces flow easily indoors to out, anchored by a white brick fireplace and timeless finishes. Glass doors open onto covered patios and a striking tiled fireplace, made for long dinners and evenings watching the bay change color. Beyond, a spacious backyard offers space for whatever you dream up. A detached structure at the rear offers potential: an ADU, a guest retreat, a studio, an office. The bedroom is a quiet luxury, set beneath vaulted ceilings with soft light through picture windows. Two closets offer effortless storage, and the room feels serene, private, and impeccably finished, a true retreat at day's end. Minutes from Seacliff Beach, Aptos Village, and Nisene Marks, this is more than a beautiful home. It's an invitation to slow down and remember how good coastal living can feel.

Perched above the Seacliff shoreline, this is more than a home. it's a front-row seat to the rhythm of the Monterey Bay. From the Cement Ship to the Point, the view is alive and ever-changing. Whales rising, dolphins cutting through the water, sailboats drifting, and sunsets that stop you in your tracks. Reimagined over five years and completed just last year, the 3,000+ square foot residence was designed to open itself to the coast. Light moves freely, spaces flow effortlessly, and when the doors are drawn back, the boundary between inside and out quietly disappears. Mornings feel different here. Coffee in hand, the ocean just beyond, the day unfolding at its own pace. The kitchen sits at the center, welcoming, connected, and always oriented toward the view. Three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms offer comfort without distraction, each space intentionally tied to the landscape. Step outside and the bluff becomes your backyard, backing to protected state park land - private, open, and uninterrupted. Evenings gather naturally around the fire pit, beneath the stars in the hot tub, or over a meal from the wood-fired oven, with the sound of the ocean always nearby. This is the kind of home that stays with you. Not just for what you see but for how it feels to be here.
