Beautiful Mosaic Tiled Studio One Mile from the Beach/Romantic
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Mesa
We love the small dead end canyon we live in called Valerio Canyon, and have regular street parties. The entrance to a 100 acre park with 360 degree views of the ocean and city is spectacular, and very close by. Town is close, the beach is a 10 minute drive if that, we feel we have it all, the mountain views, hiking, sailing, surfing, biking, wine tasting, and a small town feel with plenty of culture.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The benefits are being close to nature and to town both. You can see an opera, or live music concert most weekends, and yet feel very close to nature on a fern studded path in the mountains or on an uncrowded beach. If you like to shop for art, we have the artwalk every weekend along the ocean front, and many world famous restaurants in all price catagories. Go Romance for the weekend, and for $15 I will have a dozen red roses in your room when you arrive, or for $12 a bottle of chilling champage. get creative, how about rose petals on the bed, or local wines and cheeses stocked in your refigerator, when you arrive, just let me know how I can make your trip special, and we will make it happen!
360 degree ocean, Island, and city views, 100 acres, also take off point for parasaling at the top of the mountain, if you keep walking you can end up at the ocean in 25 minutes. Dog freindly park, w
Old California as it was in the 1800's, cliff edge park, very large 100 acres of unspoiled forested with natural area trees, plants, can see whales at times from there, dog friendly, path leads down t
Owner's Map of Mesa
I have been in interior design of commercial spaces for 26 years, I live with my husband Sheridan who is an master arborist here in SB, and we enjoy fishing, camping, and gardening together, plus the outdoors and travel. We have recently upgraded our home and rental with artistic mosaic Tile work, by an artist on our block. We enjoy our neighbors and our neighborhood which is close to town, yet a quiet canyon that has lots of trees. We aim to please and my husband and I will help you design and find whatever activities will make your stay more fun or romantic! We want you to have a fabulous time, and tell all of your friends about us, and want to come back.
The sound of Birds is all you will hear when you open your french doors, we get lots of different ones, orioles, hawks, blue jays, and more in the oak grove canyon we live in, yet just close to the city and beach. Park down the street and up the hill with fantastic views of the ocean and whole city, Mission, downtown courthouse, all the landmarks of the town. Hundreds of wineries close by, hiking, you name it, we can help you find local fishing, whale watching, sailing, diving, surfing, on and on.
