120 Hermosa
Property Description
Set in Sunset Palisades, one of Shell Beach’s most desirable coastal neighborhoods, this Mediterranean-inspired residence offers ocean-view living, multiple outdoor spaces, and the relaxed coastal setting that makes this part of the Central Coast so sought after. Mature palms, red tile rooflines, landscaped patios, and raised planters give the home a distinct coastal character just moments from the shoreline. Inside, the main living area is warm and light-filled, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beam detail, a fireplace, and large windows that frame the coastal setting.
The kitchen features rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, skylight-style natural light, and a center island cooktop. A kitchen pass-through opens to the backyard and outdoor bar area, creating an easy setup for entertaining and indoor-outdoor living. Just off the kitchen, a flexible backyard-facing space with direct outdoor access can serve as a casual dining area, sitting room, office, playroom, or secondary living area.
The primary suite is the centerpiece of the home, with room for a sitting area, large windows, and direct access to a front balcony with panoramic ocean views. It is a private place to take in the coastline, ocean horizon, palms, and neighborhood below. A newly built rear deck off the primary suite creates a second outdoor connection and leads down to the backyard.
The ensuite bath features dual sinks, skylights, and a large glass-enclosed walk-in shower, while the walk-in closet provides substantial storage. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family, guests, office use, or hobbies, with built-in cabinetry adding useful storage. The hall bath features stone finishes, skylight natural light, and a glass-enclosed shower.
Hall cabinetry, a dedicated laundry room, spacious garage, and rear garage storage add practical convenience. The backyard is unusually large for the area, with lawn, patio space, mature landscaping, and direct connection to the kitchen, flexible living area, and rear deck from the primary suite. The front patio and ocean-view balcony add even more places to enjoy the Shell Beach setting.
Beachfront South Palisades Park, beach access, Palisades Park and Playground, basketball, tennis and pickleball courts, Ontario Ridge Trail, and the Bluff Trailhead are all within walking distance. Fresh paint, new carpet, panoramic ocean views, and a rare Sunset Palisades setting complete the offering.
