About this home
Welcome home to a property filled with charm, flexibility, and so many possibilities! From the moment you arrive, the charming crisscross windows and arched wood detailing at the front porch give this home a warm, distinctive personality. An expansive driveway provides impressive off-street parking with room for approximately five vehicles—perfect for a busy household or visiting guests. Maybe you need room for that boat or RV. Inside, the versatile floor plan offers something special. The fourth bedroom is tucked away from the other bedrooms and conveniently located next to a three-quarter bath, with easy access to the laundry room and kitchen. It’s an ideal setup for a family member who would appreciate a little more independence and personal space, a private guest retreat, home office, hobby room, or potentially a room for rent. So many options! Buyers are encouraged to verify permitted uses and rental possibilities with the appropriate local government agencies. Step into the backyard and discover even more to enjoy. A covered patio creates a wonderful shaded spot for morning coffee, weekend barbecues, outdoor dining, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. There’s a garden box just waiting for someone to plant fresh vegetables, herbs, or flowers, along with established fruit trees to add to the backyard charm. New fencing and convenient alley access provide additional functionality and possibilities. The location puts you close to so much of what makes the Lompoc Valley and Central Coast special. Enjoy nearby shopping, dining, parks and historic Old Town, along with easy access to Vandenberg Space Air Force Base, La Purísima Mission State Historic Park, the acclaimed Sta. Rita Hills wine region, local wineries and tasting rooms, and beautiful Central Coast beaches. Whether you need room for family, a dedicated work-from-home space, extra privacy for guests, or simply a home with character and a backyard ready to enjoy. This property offers the flexibility to make it your own. Come see the possibilities!
River Terrace, located between the Santa Ynez River and Ocean Avenue, is a residential and riverside Lompoc neighborhood with broad valley views and a calm, open feel. The area reads as mid-century ranch homes and low-slung streets set against the river corridor and nearby fields. Neighborhood character concentrates around the Ocean Avenue and H Street corridor, where local storefronts, taquerias, and everyday errands create a steady daytime hum. Community pillars nearby include the Lompoc Theatre, Cypress Gallery, and the Lompoc Valley Historical Society Museum. River access and open-sky scenery shape a walk-and-bike rhythm along the edges. The setting balances small-town streets with a strong sense of landscape.
