8864 WINDWARD LNManzanita, OR 97130

Mere steps from the shore in south Manzanita, this exceptional beach cabin arrives on the market for the very first time. Architect-designed and craftsman-built, at 924 square feet, it's intentionally intimate; a place where time slows down and the outside world fades away. The cabin's all-wood interior wraps you in warmth from the moment you arrive: rich spruce floors underfoot, wood-clad walls, rough cut cedar, handcrafted doors and soaring vaulted ceilings lend the space an effortless, airy elegance. Every window opens to let in the salt air, blurring the line between inside and out. The open downstairs living area flows naturally to a sunny front deck and a cozy covered back porch ' perfect for morning coffee or evening stargazing. The thoughtful layout includes built-in window seats and sleeping nooks, offering intimate alcoves for reading, napping, or accommodating an overnight guest. A private upstairs loft with two closets and a full bath offers the kind of snug, tucked-away feeling that makes a beach weekend feel like a true escape. Modern comforts are here: a propane fireplace for cool coastal evenings, a spacious peninsula kitchen, tankless water heater, stacked washer/dryer and full bathrooms on each floor' all without sacrificing the cabin's roots. When the mood calls for adventure, a short stroll takes you to the beach, or follow the bike path to the state park or town. When it calls for stillness, the cabin itself is the destination ' a book, a game, a porch chair, and the sound of the ocean. Small, but never lacking. Simple, but never ordinary. This enchanting retreat is a place where memories are made.
