I sit above the Pacific in The Capes, a gated Oceanside community, with Three Arch Rocks, Cape Lookout and miles of sandy shoreline framed by my wall of ocean facing windows. From my vaulted great room, watch the surf roll in over morning coffee or settle beside the raised hearth fireplace as a storm moves across the water. Windows wrap the dining corner, and my open kitchen features a breakfast bar, white cabinetry, brass accents and softly veined counters. Step onto my main level deck for a sweeping view of the coastline, or take in the surf from the covered lower deck. The beachfront is within a quarter mile, and designated community paths and stairs lead down to the sand. It’s easy to spend the morning beachcombing and come home in time for lunch. I’m a renovated coastal Craftsman townhome with two bedrooms, each with an ocean view and a private ensuite. The primary suite opens directly onto the lower deck, and the private bath pairs a jetted soaking tub with a separate shower. An upstairs sleeping loft gives overnight guests a place to settle in and doubles as a quiet reading nook between visits. A third full bath on the main level gives guests their own space, and a dedicated laundry space and attached garage with room for one car round out the convenient layout. When you’re ready for a change of scenery, join neighbors at the Bridge House for social events and meetings, play pickleball or tennis on the community court, enjoy a round on the bocce lawn or bring lunch to the picnic area. Oceanside village is also close by for a meal or an afternoon at Oceanside Beach State Recreation Site, where you can explore tide pools and find the pedestrian tunnel through Maxwell Point. Head north to Cape Meares Lighthouse and the Octopus Tree for a walk among the spruce, or go south for a paddle on Netarts Bay or a hike at Cape Lookout State Park. When the day is done, the coastline you’ve been exploring is waiting beyond my windows.
