444 Pier Avenue 12 This inviting studio condo is located just 1.5 blocks from the ocean, offering an affordable opportunity to own an income-producing property near the beach. Open the window, breathe in the fresh ocean air, and enjoy having the sand and surf just moments from your door. This property is required to operate as a vacation rental and is governed by Coastal Commission and HOA requirements. Owners are permitted personal use for up to 84 days per year, with the unit required to remain available for vacation rental use during the balance of the year. This unique setup provides owners with designated time to enjoy the property while generating guest revenue to help offset ownership expenses. The community offers an onsite hot tub, laundry facility, BBQ/cooking area, and fish-cleaning station. The building exterior was also recently repainted, adding to the property's fresh coastal appeal. HOA dues include all utilities, plus cable and internet, making ongoing ownership and vacation-rental operation convenient. For buyers looking to invest near the ocean while still having limited personal-use opportunities, this studio offers a unique way to own a piece of the Central Coast and participate in the area's vacation-rental market.
