Rare opportunity to own a beautiful ocean view lot in the gated oceanfront community known as The Beach in Smith River. Lot #22 consists of a level and usable .52-acre parcel, making it an ideal setting to build your dream coastal home. Located just across from the ocean, this property captures beautiful oceanviews, breathtaking sunsets, coastline views, and sparkling city lights stretching into Oregon. One of the standout features of this special community is the private gated setting where only owners and guests travel through, creating a peaceful and exclusive atmosphere. Residents enjoy two deeded community beach access points with well-maintained pathways leading directly to the shoreline, where miles of long sandy beach extend in both directions for incredible walks and coastal enjoyment. One of the beach access points is conveniently located just one lot to the south of this property. Walk to Prince Island and experience the incredible natural scenery this area is known for. An additional advantage of this lot is that the oceanfront lots within the subdivision are limited to single-level homes, while Lot #22 has the potential for a two-story home which could create even more expansive ocean and coastline views from an upper level while still enjoying oceanviews from the main homesite area. This exceptional location enjoys the desirable Banana Belt climate similar to the nearby Brookings, Oregon area, offering mild temperatures year-round. Just a short drive away, you can explore some of the most beautiful Redwood forests and lush fern groves on the Northern California Coast. The nearby Smith River offers incredible opportunities for fishing, kayaking, rafting, and floating in the clear emerald waters that make this river so famous. Conveniently located just 3 miles from the Oregon border and only minutes to Brookings for shopping, dining, the Port of Brookings-Harbor, and other amenities. Water connection fee with Smith River Water District has already been paid. Underground utilities available. HOA dues are approximately $760 per year. CCR’s apply. Land approved for standard septic system. A truly special opportunity to create your own coastal retreat along the beautiful Northern California coastline.
