Little Beach House

We used the little beach house as our vacation home from January 1,2003 until we moved to Pacific Beach full time in early December of 2004. It was then our full time home until we got final approval on The Beach House and moved into it in late 2005.
The little beach house is a delightful place. It sits on the side of a hill at 2nd and Railroad in the northwest quarter of Pacific Beach, overlooking the town to the south, with the ocean spread out beyond. Any activity in the town and some of the state park is clearly visible from the deck. The wind over the deck is broken by the house on the north side and a wooden wind screen on the east. The effect is to create an island of calm, even on moderately windy days. It has three bedrooms and two baths.
Unlike Seabrook, about a mile to the south, Pacific Beach is not New Urbanism. It is an authentic portless costal village. In a prior life it provided the necessities of life to the workers in a thriving timber industry. It is presently in transition to a recreation area, however remnants of the past still remain. Until very recently the house next door to the east was reputed
to be the oldest house in town at somewhere around 100 years. It has been recently demolished.
At the present time (May, 2007) the little beach house is rented on a long term basis.
