Discover La Selva Beach and then find your way to 250 Altivo Avenue. Nestled under the oaks and stately redwoods this La Selva Beach home is a rare find. The magic begins the moment you enter the driveway and catch your first view of this storybook home. Set on a level 1/2 acre plus parcel, the home benefits from both a southwest exposure and shading from the gardens and trees. The gardens take you back to a sense of tranquility and make you want to settle in and read a good book. Even before entering the home you realize that you are experiencing something special. The privacy, gardens, sounds of the surf and afternoon breeze off the Monterey Bay all make their contribution. The home is highlighted by two primary bedrooms with private baths, great room with a fireplace as its centerpiece, hardwood floors and sunlit galley kitchen with new appliances. Not to be missed is the picturesque free standing cottage where you can disappear with a good book or use as a home office. Did I mention La Selva Beach? You have entered a beachside community that features much more than mile after mile of sand and waves. Go back in time to the 4th of July parades of your youth. Relax on the beach or shoot hoops at the neighborhood park. La Selva is more than an address, it is a way of life.
