The home
About 8 Vista Del Sol
This beautifully appointed home has it all--location, abundant space, quality, charm and is turnkey! Located in the private community of Three Arch Bay, this gorgeous coastal cottage is set behind manicured hedges for privacy and exudes warmth and character from the moment you step through the grapevine garden gates. Enjoy sprawling indoor/outdoor living with ocean views from the main entertaining spaces including Catalina Island from the sumptuous master suite. Residence features 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, separate living and family rooms and a bonus/media room that could also serve as a guest/bedroom #5. Thoughtful details throughout such as a double-sided wood burning fireplace (stone in living room + brick hearth in kitchen/dining) set the perfect ambiance for holiday parties or cozy gatherings. The functional floor plan can live like a single-level with all main spaces, master, and a secondary bedroom (currently used as an office) on the top floor with 2 en suite bedrooms and bonus room on the level below. An open gourmet kitchen highlights the ideal built-in dining area, custom artisan cabinetry, honed marble countertops, professional grade appliances and a rare walk-in pantry. One of the first homes built on the upper side of T.A.B., this sweet cottage was originally constructed in the 1940’s but has been updated with modern day luxuries such as A/C, indoor laundry, outdoor fireplace, tons of storage, and oversized 2-car garage but still retains vintage touches such as original hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and French windows with classic hardware. The property is quiet and private with spacious outdoor areas for dining, celebrations, or relaxing as you meander through the ocean view terrace with grassy front yard, verdant gardens or peaceful deck with the soothing fountain in the background. Bedrooms have Dutch or French doors that fill each room with natural light and provide easy access to the outdoors/ocean breezes. T.A.B. amenities include private beach access, tennis/sports courts, park/playground, clubhouse, 24/7 guarded gates, plus fun holiday & community events for all ages.
