Perched on the hillside above Rockaway Beach with commanding views toward Twin Rocks, 535 Kesterson Ct is a rare, generous coastal residence offering roughly 4,223 square feet of thoughtfully arranged space. The main living level is oriented to maximize ocean sightlines; large windows and an open footprint give the rooms a breezy, expansive feel while the built-in elevator provides practical accessibility between levels. The lower level showcases polished concrete flooring — durable and low maintenance — and opens to flexible use as media space, workshop, or a second living suite. Mechanical systems include both a heat pump and furnace, providing efficient year-round comfort.
This home was constructed in 2006 and was built with size and function in mind: three full bathrooms, a large living area appropriate for entertaining, and bedrooms that capture the coastal breezes. The property is sited on a tidy 9,147 SF lot in a quiet cul-de-sac, offering privacy while keeping downtown Rockaway Beach, the wide sandy shoreline, and local amenities only a short drive away. Extensive glazing frames views of the ocean and Twin Rocks — a distinctive coastal feature visible from the main living spaces.
The seller notes the home requires finishing touches to secure a final occupancy permit; this creates an opportunity for a buyer to complete desired finishes and secure turnkey occupancy on terms that reflect the remaining scope of work. Photographs show the breadth of living space and the condition of primary rooms; mechanicals are in place and the property includes features that increase marketability — notably the elevator and the generous lower level footprint with polished concrete.
535 Kesterson Ct is ideal for buyers seeking significant square footage and dramatic ocean views without the premium required for fully finished, turnkey coastal estates. Whether you’re planning to make this a primary residence with room for visiting family, or positioning it as a high-earning short-term rental (subject to local rules), this home delivers scale, accessibility, and one of Rockaway Beach’s best vantage points for coastal sunsets. Adjoining lot is reportedly available — inquire for APN and details.
