About this home

Light-filled Baywood Park living awaits at 1689 5th Street, just one block from the bay and east of Sweet Springs Preserve. This inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a thoughtful split-level design, warm architectural character, and abundant natural light throughout. The main living level is centered around the kitchen, dining, and living areas, where high tongue-and-groove wood-beamed ceilings create an open, welcoming feel. A wall of west-facing windows draws in afternoon light and coastal breezes, while offering filtered glimpses toward the bay through mature trees. The kitchen is both cheerful and practical, with soft butter-yellow cabinetry, generous cupboard space, pull-out lower shelving, and a walk-in pantry. The primary bedroom includes a loft and picture window framing a view of Morro Rock. Downstairs, two bedrooms look out to the backyard, including one with a sliding glass door. A separate laundry room provides backyard access, and you will find plentiful closets for all of your needs. The spacious attached two-car garage includes a pedestrian side door. Outside, an extraordinary, established edible garden is a rare bonus for those who appreciate it. Raised beds, a greenhouse, and a remarkable collection of fruit trees, berries, vines, and citrus create a deeply cultivated outdoor retreat. Ideally located in Baywood Park near Sweet Springs Nature Preserve, the Back Bay, waterfront dining, neighborhood shops, inns, and the beloved Monday Farmers Market.
