By the beach Coastal Craftsman w/king beds, AC

This wonderfully redone historic cottage, just five houses from the water (near arguably the best beach in Carlsbad-“The Point”) was once owned by one of the true founders of Carlsbad. Originally built in Carlsbad village in the 1920’s, the house was moved to its current location in 1933, by Ms. Mary Christensen. We have artfully remade the space while preserving elements of the vintage charm of this Sears and Roebuck Craftsman catalogue-ordered cottage. Book now! You’ll love being here.
