Housing in this area is above the median pricing for the county, if not the state in general. Part of the reason is the location and the fact that this is a beach town. The other part is that many of the properties here have premium features. As a playground for the well-to-do, people here often have pleasure boats and want a property that is close to or adjacent to a marina.

People in this area are also willing to pay more because of the community features and attractions. Most people here love the beach climate. This allows them to have moderate temperatures most of the year and this area generally does not get the heat or air pollution problems found in other areas of the county. The city has dozens of popular restaurants, unique shopping features and lots of opportunities for nightlife at exclusive clubs.

 

What’s available?

 

While there are single-family houses in the area, many people prefer to rent apartments or townhouses. These units are available in studios up to three-bedrooms. People will find that many of the town homes have attached garages that put these at three stories total and often provide great views of the Pacific, which is something that is not usually available to single-family homes.

 

The design of many of these units is very similar to single-family houses in many cases. Some of these have open floor plans with gourmet kitchens. Most have abundant closets and storage and it’s more or less a given that there will be some kind of out door living space like a deck.

 

The styling details are also very current in the properties here. Granite counter tops are common to kitchens but many units also have this feature in the bathrooms. Walk-in closets are common as are in-unit washers and dryers.

 

The amenities can be different with each property. Some have a roof deck for enjoying the stars while others have a central courtyard with a pool. People here expect, and receive, upscale fitness centers on the property and many of these have advance cardio machines.

 

People will find standard amenities but this area often provides a range of features that are out of the ordinary. An example of this might be concierge services. These can obtain services for tenants like airline tickets, pet walking, scheduling hair salon appointments, sending floral arrangements to others or shipping packages just to name a few. With many people in this area having busy professional lives and social schedules, this can be one feature that is always in demand.
