Sold in Manzanita: 754 Dorcas Ln
Tucked into one of Manzanita’s coveted Classic Street Cottage communities, 754 Dorcas Ln offered a rare opportunity to enjoy small-scale coastal living with charm, privacy, and a strong neighborhood feel. Hidden from the bustle of downtown yet just a quick stroll to village shops, restaurants, and miles of open beach, the property captured the ease and appeal of the Manzanita lifestyle.
Built in 2017, the cottage offered 1 bedroom, 1 full bath, and 555 square feet of living space on one level. The home was thoughtfully designed with separation between the great room, bedroom, and bathroom, creating a comfortable layout for quiet retreat time or gathering with friends and family. High ceilings, natural light, and a clean cottage design made the compact footprint feel bright, efficient, and welcoming.
The kitchen featured a free-standing range, free-standing refrigerator, downdraft, and stainless steel appliances, creating a practical setup for simple coastal living. Quality turnkey furniture and furnishings were included, allowing the next owner to settle in and begin enjoying the home right away. A bonus feature was the property’s own electric car charging station.
The 1,742-square-foot lot was part of a thoughtfully planned small neighborhood community, with porches facing a garden courtyard, connecting pathways, mature landscaping, and architectural choices that balanced community connection with privacy. Off-street parking, public water, wall furnace heat, zoned heating, and a composition roof added everyday function.
Please note: the HOA does not allow short-term rentals.
