Set on a corner lot in the heart of Manzanita, 288 Fourth St offered the kind of classic beach cabin charm that feels increasingly special. With mid-century character, warm coastal details, and an easy single-level layout, this furnished turnkey home delivered a simple and inviting way to enjoy life near both town and beach.
Built in 1925, the home carried a relaxed vintage spirit, with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and 750 square feet of living space. The living room featured a river rock wood-burning fireplace and wood ceiling, creating a cozy gathering space full of personality and warmth.
The backyard added another layer of appeal. A tiered deck, mature native plantings, and outdoor gathering areas created a peaceful retreat for dining al fresco, enjoying quiet evenings, or relaxing after a day exploring the coast. The setting felt private and serene while still being wonderfully close to Manzanita’s village energy.
The location was one of the property’s strongest features. From Fourth St, Laneda Avenue was just two blocks away, while the beach was only five blocks from home. Shops, restaurants, trails, and miles of sandy shoreline were all easy to enjoy, making the property an especially appealing coastal getaway.
