213 sand street

This is the ultimate beach house, with easy access to the sand and panoramic views of the ocean and Rio Del Mar. Designed for multigenerational living, this home makes everyday life feel effortless. Built in 2006 by Thomas Crenshaw and set on an elevated, spacious lot, it has welcoming rhythm, with spaces equally suited to quiet mornings, casual dinners, and weekends with loved ones. Natural light moves beautifully through the home from dawn to sunset, while hardwood floors, custom window treatments, and thoughtful finishes create a polished yet comfortable feel. The chefs kitchen sits at the heart of it all, with generous prep space, upgraded appliances, and a new skylight overhead. The primary suite with soaking tub and sunset views provides added romance. An additional ~450 sq. ft. of bonus space and owned solar add flexibility and efficiency. An elevator connects every level, while the oversized 2-car garage with a full bath and laundry, plus ample parking, makes beach life even easier. Outside, the Aptos lifestyle takes over. Rio Del Mar Beach, Aptos Village, local cafes, and Nisene Marks are all close by, making it easy to move from beach mornings to coffee runs, dinner out, or an afternoon on the trails. Tour this exceptional beach home and experience it for yourself.
