Welcome to A Row in Surfside, an incredibly rare chance to own a true beachfront home in the exclusive and gated Surfside Colony community. Located directly on the sand, this 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home offers sweeping, unobstructed ocean views from both levels, with direct beach access just beyond your private deck.



Spanning approximately 1,670 square feet, this split-level home has been cared for over the years and is livable in its current condition. However, the next owner will likely take advantage of the opportunity to reimagine and modernize the space, transforming it into a custom coastal retreat.



The main entry level features a living room with towering ceilings and a convenient entry-level half bath. Sunlight floods the main living space through soaring glass windows, bringing the beach indoors. The split staircase leads to the open-concept kitchen and dining area. Upstairs, the primary living space includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an ocean-facing primary suite with dramatic beach views, tall wood-beamed ceilings, and a walk-out deck overlooking the sand. At the rear, two bedrooms were previously combined into one oversized room with original wood paneling, offering the potential to reconfigure as desired.



The home sits on a 1,114 sq ft beachfront lot in a quiet, guard-gated section of Surfside, known for its privacy, tight-knit community, and proximity to Seal Beach and Huntington Harbour. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a beachfront property with unmatched potential in one of Southern California’s most coveted coastal enclaves.

Fantastic New Listing on the Sand in the Sunset Beach area of Huntington Beach! Where is Sunset Beach? It is a quaint & sleepy area of Huntington Beach located just south of Surfside Colony and North of Bolsa Chica State Beach. Due to limited public parking, the soft sands & surfable waves of Sunset Beach are refreshingly less crowded than other Southern California beaches. Those who appreciate privacy are drawn to this remarkable stretch of Orange County coastline, yet it is only a 20 minute drive to Long Beach Airport and less than an hour from your friends & family in most areas of Los Angeles County. This beautiful oceanfront home has an ELEVATOR to all three levels. It was constructed in 1988 and has been substantially enhanced in recent years. It sits on a rare “Sunny” 40 foot wide corner lot with amazing over-the-water sunset views and has approximately 3816 square feet of living area. The full width 3rd floor Primary Suite has panoramic whitewater, sunset, and Catalina views which must be seen to be appreciated… the views can be enjoyed from the sectional sofa area (with fireplace), presidential desk, and the king size bed. Other luxury features in the primary suite include beverage fridge, dishwasher, built-in coffee maker & microwave, two walk-in closets, separate tub/shower, and washer/dryer area. The 2nd floor has an office (could be bedroom), sitting area, and guest room that share a nautical theme hall bath, plus a VIP bedroom with ensuite accessible bathroom with roll-in shower. The entire first floor is an open concept “great room” with fireplace, sofa area, countertop bar (with two wine/beverage fridges, sink, & ice maker), oceanview dining area, and gourmet kitchen with 8 burner range, wok burner, built in refrigerator, 2 dishwashers, beverage fridge, and enough counter space to serve all that you desire to invite to your “get togethers”. Bi-fold doors lead to the spacious patio on the sand and a planted dune which provides both ambiance and privacy. The owner recently had two enclosed garage spaces fabricated, and there is additional parking on site for up to 3 additional cars. This truly special beach home has the combination of parking, bedrooms, and living space which will allow you to entertain all the family & friends you care to invite… If you have been looking for a move-in ready detached house on the sand in Coastal Orange County with all the features anyone could desire in a beach home, this is quite possibly the one.
