Tucked in Neahkahnie just up the street from Manzanita beach, this quintessential 1951 cottage puts you close enough to hear the waves from home. It sits on a private oversized lot (.32 acres) that feels like your own coastal sanctuary. Inside, 1,414 sq ft offers 1 bedroom and a full bath on the main level, plus a finished attic bonus room with a half bath upstairs, ideal for an office or creative space. Cozy up by the propane fireplace, or unwind in the sunroom/dining area that opens to a deck overlooking the fully fenced backyard. Original hardwood floors, built-in shelving, and abundant storage add character throughout. In the backyard, a winding trail leads down to a babbling creek, crossed by a charming little bridge to a lounging deck tucked among old-growth rhododendrons, hydrangeas, fuchsias, and native plants… A true park-like escape alive with birdsong and the sound of the sea. A newer roof (2018), 1-car garage, RV parking with electrical hookup, and 2 sheds add everyday ease, and all of this outside the tsunami zone. This home is ready for its next chapter of making memories at the beach. Bring your vision to make this beloved cottage truly your own.
