We really enjoyed this beach house. It was chilly the days we were there and sitting near the fireplace with a view of the ocean was quite lovely. Yes, the road is between you and the ocean, but that is true all along this stretch of coast. It's really lovely. The location is fabulous. Walk across the street and you are on the little path that lets you walk along the ocean in either direction.
We also quite enjoyed the large backyard with it's purple pride of madeira plants in full bloom (April, but they stay in bloom a long time).
If you are a person who is bothered by light, be aware that the front room is very close to the road and the shades are (thankfully, IMHO) not darkening shades, so you do experience car lights in the room from time to time at night. There is not a lot of traffic at night, but it's non-zero. We're good sleepers so it wasn't an issue for us, but if you're a light sleeper or one for whom the coming/going of light is a problem, you might want to sleep in the back bedroom. On the other hand...the front bedroom has the best ocean view, and the Buddha!
The house is comfortable, well appointed, and right at the beach. It has parking for 2 cars (one in garage, one in driveway) and beach chairs you can use. It's really a lovely beach house!!
