Just steps from the sandy beach, this home is something the whole family will remember. With breathtaking views from almost every angle, a garden and a stunning patio, it’s the perfect spot for a relaxing beach break. Inside, we’re talking vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams for a real beach house feel, and each bedroom has its own en-suite and access to an outside space – be it a balcony or the rear terrace. Facing the ocean, there’s a perfect outdoor dining area and barbecue, so you can enjoy warm evenings outdoors together, and there’s a lovely pool and spa. Best of all, you’ll have your own private access steps down to the gorgeous stretch of sand between Windansea Beach and Marine Street Beach. If you're travelling with a golf fan, Torrey Pines Golf Course is a short drive away, and San Diego Zoo is a great day out if you’re traveling with children.
