Located across the street from the Carlsbad beach with public access to lifeguard tower 3. This iconic beach bungalow sits amongst a recently gentrified section of the Carlsbad Village within walking distance from the Army/Navy Academy and historic Magee Park with 3 acres of green belt and various recreational amenities and BBQ pits. This 4 BD/2.5 BA beach home is a nostalgic reminder of what a Carlsbad beach bungalow looked like years before the housing renovations began to populate the village. This home is an original and exudes the charm and distinct beach lifestyle of the sixties. The interior just received a fresh coat of paint and original wood floors were refinished to blend with the new LVP flooring, because a beach house of the sixties would NEVER have carpet this close to the ocean. This 1,600 sqft home captures the essence of California's beach vibe and makes this home a One-Of-A-Kind wonder for entertaining, yet warm and inviting for casual everyday living. The formal dining and family room face the ocean as they did back in the day and has an inviting & open floorplan with an abundance of natural lighting and sea breezes that permeate the entire property. There are ceiling fans in most of the rooms and the guest bathroom was just reglazed. The kitchen comes with a gas stove/oven, fridge and an unobstructed view of the side yard with indigenous succulents and a beautiful eucalyptus tree. The back of the house features a great room with full bathroom that looks out over the private courtyard with original shade awning and outside shower next to the surfboard racks. All windows feature new designer shades to compensate for the Carlsbad sunsets, but I would leave the windows open to enjoy the clean ocean air.This home is available for immediate occupancy at $5,650/MO for a 1-year lease with intention for long-term tenancy.
