Own a Pacifica Gem

This is the kind of property people wait years for. Set above the Pacific Ocean with sweeping, unobstructed views, this rare offering blends the feeling of a private retreat with the comfort and scale of a truly versatile home.
Lovingly held by the same owners for many years, the main level features three bedrooms and two baths, including a primary suite with en-suite bath and serene views. A bright, open living and dining area is framed by a wall of windows capturing Milagra Ridge and the coastline beyond - an ever-changing backdrop of sky and sea. Sliding doors off the dining area open directly to an expansive view deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow, while the well-appointed kitchen is ideally positioned for both daily living and entertaining.
The lower level offers exceptional flexibility, with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, kitchenette, and an oversized family room complete with bar and pool table - perfect for hosting, extended stays, or multi-generational living. From here, step directly out to the grounds, where the property truly lives like a private retreat.
Set on nearly half an acre, the outdoor spaces are extraordinary - featuring multiple areas for dining, lounging, and gathering, along with a hot tub, fire pit, BBQ, sports court, gazebo and beautifully landscaped surroundings, all oriented toward the view.
With nearly 2,700 square feet of living space, a large garage, and room to accommodate a variety of lifestyles, this home offers both comfort and versatility. Tucked away in a peaceful setting yet just minutes from Pacifica’s best amenities - including the Pacifica Pier, Eureka Square, Oceana Market, coastal trails, golf, and convenient freeway access - this is a rare opportunity to own a true view property with scale, privacy, and presence.

Neighborhood

Known for its beaches, hiking, and annual Pacific Coast Fog Festival, Pacifica is a popular spot for surfers and outdoor enthusiasts, who are drawn to the city's rugged coastline and rolling hills. The city of approximately 38,000 is located north of Half Moon Bay along the coast and includes Linda Mar and Rockaway beaches.

Pacifica got its name during a 1957 contest and is inspired by an 80-foot statue built by sculptor Ralph Stackpole in the late 1930s. While the original statue no longer exists, one sculptor’s working model stands on the front stairs of Pacifica’s City Hall, while another occupies the City Hall's council chambers.

A skate park is available for skaters of all abilities, and citywide Wi-Fi service is available for residents, visitors, and businesses. The Sanchez Adobe history site dates back to prehistoric times and served as an Indian village, cattle ranch, and mission farm -- among many other uses. It is the oldest building in San Mateo County, according to Pacifica’s website.
