Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Positioned on California's central coast, this cheerful house invites you to spend your days outdoors – a sundeck with loungers, a hot tub, a charcoal grill, and a fire pit give you plenty of reasons to linger once the sun dips. The kitchen and dining area keeps things sociable for cooking together, with a fireplace in the living space ready for quieter evenings in. Pismo State Beach and the Oceano Dunes are a five-minute drive away, and the antique shops, restaurants, and specialty stores of Arroyo Grande village are equally close.
