Vice Beach Surf Bungalow

A single-story beach bungalow steps from a popular surf break.

A small, sand-scoured bungalow painted a faded mint green, this beach property sits two blocks from a surf break that locals guard like a family secret. The interior is simple — one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen that opens into a living room with wicker furniture that's been there since the nineties. An outdoor shower off the side of the house rinses off salt water before you track it inside. A surfboard rack on the porch holds whatever quiver you're building. It's a lifestyle purchase more than a strategic one, but sometimes that matters too.
