473 College Ave, Manzanita

Part coastal cottage, part modern retreat, this home stands out for its distinctive architecture as much as its setting. Vaulted ceilings, layered rooflines, warm wood accents, and darling nooks create a timeless PNW coastal feel, with Neahkahnie Mountain commanding the horizon and peek-a-boo ocean views flickering through the trees. Near the top of Manzanita's coveted Classic Ridge Beach, this rare two-lot offering features the home on one lot and a spacious double-car garage with attached studio on the second lot. Both located out of the tsunami zone. Like a favorite winter sweater, the main level wraps you in warmth and beach charm. The living area centers on the view and a propane stove, with luxury vinyl plank flooring and an updated kitchen. Decks off the dining area and entry showcase the mountain backdrop, and use your imagination for the south side nook - office, reading or play area. A ladder-access loft adds cozy bonus space (not in the listed square footage; not accessible during showings, but available for inspection). Downstairs, the generous primary suite has its own propane stove and walk-in closet, along with a guest room and an updated bath with concrete counters, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. A lower sun room with separate entry (currently an office), laundry, and half bath complete the level. Outside, a darling rock-work path winds past lush perennial beds and a lower patio for a tucked-away, hidden feel. A small greenhouse (no power or water connected) offers garden or hobby potential. Updates include all new windows, siding, and Trex decking. With a flexible garage and studio space, this one is full of potential. Showings are by appointment only.
