ABOUT

Turn-Key Coastal Retreat in Rio Del Mar Welcome to 271 Dry Creek Road, a beautifully maintained home in the desirable Sumner Woods community of Rio Del Mar, one of Aptos’ most sought-after beach neighborhoods. Just a 10-minute walk along a scenic neighborhood trail brings you to Hidden Beach, with Hidden Beach Park nearby—making this a prime location for both relaxation and recreation. This home is truly turn-key, with thoughtful upgrades and meticulous care evident throughout. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed by vaulted open-beam ceilings, skylights, and expansive double-pane windows that fill the space with natural light and frame tranquil views of lush greenery. Professionally refinished red oak hardwood floors look like new and complement the warm, inviting interior. The living room features a cozy gas fireplace insert, offering both ambiance and efficient heat. The kitchen has been stylishly updated with granite countertops, Bosch stainless steel appliances, and generous cabinet space, while the bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled with clean, modern finishes. Designer light fixtures and recessed LED lighting add a contemporary touch, and the home’s thoughtful layout creates a seamless flow between living areas. A standout feature is the like-new Trex-style deck, extending the living room outdoors and creating an ideal space for entertaining or unwinding in the fresh coastal air. The landscaped yard is low-maintenance and enhanced with seasonal flowers, a peaceful seasonal creek, and an automatic irrigation system. Additional upgrades include owned solar panels by Sunrun, currently covering all electricity costs, as well as wiring for both a hot tub and an electric vehicle charger. The home is completed by a high-quality dimensional shingle roof, an upgraded electrical panel, and an attached two-car garage with laundry. Ample guest parking is available throughout the well-kept Sumner Woods neighborhood. This friendly, well-managed HOA community reflects a strong sense of pride and ownership. The location offers convenient access to Rio Del Mar Elementary, Seascape Golf Course, tennis clubs, and Seascape Village. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence or a coastal weekend escape, 271 Dry Creek Road delivers a rare combination of privacy, quality, and beachside convenience—all in impeccable, move-in-ready condition.

Welcome to Rio del Mar and Seascape

The name "Rio Del Mar" was chosen as a catchy name to promote the sale of real estate in this beautiful stretch of coastline during the Roaring 20s, and real estate is the name of the game in this small beach community. The area is technically part of Aptos, but the locals see Rio Del Mar as a completely distinct community separate from the town of Aptos on the other side of Highway 1.
 
During the Summer months, the town is flooded with tourists looking to enjoy the beach and spend time with family and friends in local vacation rentals. Many of the homes in the area are beachcomber-type, two-story townhomes, and lend themselves well to the vacation rental industry. Local residents that live year-round in the area often live in mid to upscale residences that are custom-built or located in and around the Seascape area.
 
Head a little south of Rio Del Mar State Beach, and you will find the Seascape Beach Resort. The resort offers spacious suites and villas with fully equipped kitchens and kitchenettes, fireplaces, and private balconies that face toward Monterey Bay. The local Seascape Golf Club is located on the breathtaking coastal highlands of Monterey Bay and offers a spectacular day of golf with differing terrain and ocean views. 
 
The Rio Del Mar and Seascape area are served by the Pajaro Valley Unified School District for Elementary through High School. The schools in this area are considered excellent with Rio Del Mar Elementary achieving a Greatschools rating of 9, and Aptos High School consistently ranking in the top 10% of high schools in the State according to US News & World Report.
 
Rio Del Mar and Seascape are located in the 95003 zip code along with Aptos, and the homes in the region primarily consist of single-family residences, but there are also quite a few condominium and townhome options available. Below is the historical market data for the community.
