Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Is this the BEST ocean view in town? I’ve been selling real estate for 23 years, and I’m not sure if I have seen a Better one! You can literally see the curve of the earth! The Piedras Blancas Lighthouse is in view to the north, with an unblocked horizon view past Rancho Marino on the southern end of Cambria, all the way to Point Buchon. You can see the ball of the sun going into the Pacific Ocean every day of the year! But maybe should we talk about the house? This 3,598 SF, four bedroom, three bath house is located overlooking Marine Terrace. Although three stories, the house could be single-level living, as there is a bedroom and a bathroom on the same level as the kitchen, dining room, living room, and TV room. There are two large decks, located off the kitchen and the living room. Upstairs is the large primary bedroom, with an even better view than the middle level! Just past the large walk-in closet is a huge primary bathroom with a bathtub overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Just past the three-sided fireplace is a well-situated office. Downstairs has two bedrooms and a full bath, a storage room, a wall of closets, and the two-car garage, which has a nice workshop off to the side. The backyard has a large cement patio overlooking raised flower beds out to the ocean. This house is made for entertaining!
