Nestled in the heart of Cardiff by the Sea, this captivating home offers a seaside sanctuary with four bedrooms, four baths, and an abundance of outdoor spaces. A dreamer's haven, this residence boasts meticulous craftsmanship, featuring hand-stripped and hand-shaped firs, with Aspen saplings gracing the ceilings. The culmination of nine years of dedicated effort, the architectural masterpiece was born from shared visions of the Arnold family and the creative expertise of John T. Midyette III, a visionary architect from Sante Fe, New Mexico. Every detail tells a story, from the specially crafted dining room 'horno' (fireplace oven) by a flown in artisan to the elegant Nlcho, gracefully arching above natural wood shelves, driven by rented Imperial. The upper level welcomes you with a generous primary wing, complete with an oversized walk-in closet, an office suite, a spacious ocean view deck, and a second bedroom and bath. Downstairs, discover a practical layout with a laundry room, three bedrooms (one with a small kitchenette),and a generous backyard featuring a Jacuzzi and a connecting courtyard. Entering through a custom wave gate, you are greeted by a private ocean-view courtyard leading to a living area, kitchen, dining room, wine cellar, and two additional fireplaces. Ascend to the upper level via custom 'spine' staircase, unveiling a stunning deck with yet another fireplace, grill, fridge, and panoramic views that stretch to the horizon. This Cardiff gem is a rare find, your dream of a coastal lifestyle is just a step away!
